Lammermuir Festival (4/4)

Acclaimed period instrument quartet Quatuor Mosa茂ques play Beethoven and Haydn at the Lammermuir Festival.

Kate Molleson presents the final Lunchtime Concerts featuring Austria鈥檚 leading period instrument quartet, Quatuor Mosa茂ques. Today鈥檚 concert was recorded in Crichton Collegiate Church as part of the Lammermuir Festival in 2019. The concert starts with the most famous of Haydn's six quartets of 1793, his String Quartet in G minor Op 59, No 3. It is known as the 'Rider' thanks to the bouncy theme in the last movement.
Quatuor Mosa茂ques round off our visit to the Lammermuir Festival with the third of Beethoven's 'Razumovsky' quartets. Incendiary music that, at the time, challenged players and audience alike.
