About the event
Panufnik: Heartfelt
Shostakovich: String Quartet No. 8 in C minor Op. 110
Interval
Beethoven: String Quartet in A minor Op. 132
We are delighted to open our season in customary style with the Sacconi Quartet who bring us two works by composers central to the quartet genre, preceded by Heartfelt, a work in two movements by Roxanna Panufnik, commissioned by the Sacconis in 2019. Panufnik, a composer now familiar to Wallingford audiences, begins with a movement using four dance melodies from Uzbekistan and concludes with Lament For A Bulgarian Dancing Bear. This is intriguingly based on the recorded heartbeat of Albie, a European brown bear as he underwent surgery at Bristol Zoo!
