Julia Fischer Quartet

Live from Wigmore Hall, the celebrated violinist leads her quartet in Mozart's 'Dissonance' Quartet and Janacek's String Quartet No 2, 'Intimate Letters'.

The distinguished violinist Julia Fischer founded a quartet with three other leading string players in 2011. This recital consists of two staples of the repertoire: Mozart’s String Quartet in C Major, K 465, known as the 'Dissonance Quartet' due to its strange and unusually dissonant opening; and the second of Janáček’s two quartets, 'Intimate Letters', referring to a correspondence between the composer and his unattainable beloved Kamila Stösslová.
