Happy birthday to the Belcea Quartet!

Indeed, this season marks the thirtieth anniversary of a quartet renowned for the excellence of its interpretations and the diversity of its collaborations. Its programme juxtaposes two pieces that have the particularity of being performed as a single whole: Arnold Schƶnbergā€™s Quartet NĀ° 1, a score from the early 20th century performed for the first time at the Philharmonie, and Ludwig van Beethovenā€™s Quartet op. 131, a masterpiece of audacity and modernity.
