Soppkonsert Med Franskt Guld by Montgomery, Jessie, Debussy, 에서 (2023/2023), Konserthuset (Stockholm Concert Hall), Stockholm, Sweden

A string quartet from the Royal Philharmonic opens with contemporary music by American Jessie Montgomery, born in 1981 in New York and active as a composer, violinist and educator. Her Strum is inspired by American folk music, dance and movement. The music moves from the nostalgic to the ecstatic. Debussy's String Quartet in G minor is one of the great masterpieces of the genre. It is traditionally laid out in four movements, but within the well-known form, Debussy has unearthed musical gold with lyrically caressing melodies, rhythmic challenges and surprising harmonies. Lola Torrente is a member of the orchestra's first violin part since 2015 and Gabriel Cornet in the second violin part since 2016, Lauriane Dahlkvist is seen in the viola part since 2016 and Josep Castanyer Alsonso in the cello part since 2019. Footnote: the previously announced string quartet by Édith Canat de Chizy has been discontinued and replaced by the quartet by Jessie Montgomery. *** Menu: Creamy cauliflower soup with herb oil & serrano crisps.
