De la complejidad estructural de Beethoven a la profunda inspiración melódica de Schubert, el Cuarteto Emerson brilló en todo momento.

In one of their final performances, the Emerson String Quartet comes to Cleveland to present André Previn’s Penelope, featuring Renée Fleming and other special guests.

In the first leg of a chronological traversal of the string quartet repertoire, the Emersons were on top form.

An elegiac farewell as the Emerson String Quartet – retiring next year – close their Shostakovich cycle at the Southbank Centre. 

A disappointing outing for the Emerson String Quartet in the first Sydney concert of their eight-city tour of Australia.

From the claustrophobic intensity of Britten and Shostakovich to the sunny balm of Beethoven, this was an excellent recital. 

There was a palpable sense of communion during a performance bringing these great musicians together at Carnegie Hall for the first time. 

Emerson, l’un des très grands quatuors de ces quarante dernières années, ne serait-il plus que l'ombre de ce qu'il était ? 

Linking Shostakovich and Chekhov, a full of good intentions performance at Tanglewood, was marred by a shaky mise en scène.

Joined by pianist Emanuel Ax, the Emerson Quartet performed at Lincoln Center's Mostly Mozart Festival.

The Emerson String Quartet played the full cycle of Haydn's Op.76 quartets in Tanglewood's Ozawa Hall.

Traditional August Bank Holiday weather – steady rain – was reflected in the melancholy programme for this lunchtime Chamber Prom.

The Emerson String Quartet played Haydn with poised humour, and brought warmth and strength to Ravel.  Their Beethoven had sadness, rage, violence and profound depth. 

In commemoration of Britten’s centennial, the Centro Nacional de Difusión Musical, in collaboration with the British Council programmed a series entitled “Britten Classics”. This concert was a highlight.

It’s perhaps an unusual choice to have the opening sounds of Bartók’s Second String Quartet, a little tender, a little recalcitrant, announce the start of this most impressive 20-day celebration of orchestras around Europe and the world.

For the last concert of her Perspectives series at Carnegie Hall, Renée Fleming assembled one of the least coherent concept programmes imaginable. Billed as “Vienna: Window to Modernity”, it was never clear what was specifically Viennese about the music on show, nor what was particularly modern, nor what windows had to do with anything.

This festival's final morning recital boasted very minimal staging: one chair and four music stands. Sitting, for the last time in Edinburgh as a member of the Emerson Quartet, would be cellist David Finckel.

The Emerson String Quartet played a spectacular concert to a sold-out house for the Princeton University Concerts series 117th season on Thursday, October 6, 2011, providing a promising beginning to an exciting line-up of star-studded concerts.
