Franz Schubert
Gretchen am Spinnrade D 118 (Arrangement for String Quartet)
“My peace is gone, my heart is heavy”—Franz Schubert was only 17 when he set these lines by Goethe to music and revolutionized the lied genre. The Danish String Quartet pairs its own arrangement of this famous work with Schubert’s equally seminal “Rosamunde” Quartet, written at the end of his short life. A new work by Icelandic composer Anna Thorvaldsdottir completes the program.
Approximate running time: 1h 15m with one intermission
