String quartets — you immediately think of sitting still. But in this concert there’s a lot of movement, as the four string players don’t remain sedentary. The musicians, who come from Turkey, Japan, Brazil and France, tell the stories of their music without chairs or words, but with a great deal of movement and humour. And here it’s no slip-up
if strings get crossed from time to time, but rather simply a desire to make music in every situation. The Dutch group Oorkaan will create a special kind of concert based on the music of the quartet. (text from website Salzburger Festspiele)
