Intérpretes
| The Strings of the Oxford Philharmonic |
The string players of the Oxford Philharmonic come together for an evening of impassioned music spanning the close of the Romantic era to the mid-20th century. Brahms's String Sextet features exotic and unusual chord structures and innovative contrasts. This is followed by Webern's charged and emotive Langsamer Satz, inspired by a hiking holiday and rooted in post-Brahmsian tonality. To conclude, a condensed version of Strauss's Metamorphosen, originally scored for 23 strings, and composed during the closing months of the Second World War.
