JACK Quartet (morning) ~ Marylebone, London

  • Wigmore Hall 36 Wigmore Street London, England, W1U 2BP United Kingdom (map)

String quartets by composers born in the 1930s

Heinz Holliger found inspiration for his Second String Quartet while observing the passionate dialogue and occasional disputes generated during quartet rehearsals. The JACK Quartet prefaces the work’s dramatic ebb and flow with the five mesmerising movements of Philip Glass’s Fifth String Quartet.

£5 tickets for Under 35s available

The JACK Quartet also performs at Wigmore Hall at 3.00pm and 7.30pm.
