In addition to numerous performances in Europe, featuring works by Iannotta, Lachenmann, Haas and Glass, among others, there will also be concerts at Berlin's Pierre Boulez Saal (24 September), at the Now! Festival Essen (1 November), at open music Graz (7 November), at the NOSPR Chamber Music Hall Katowice (21 November), at the Accademia Musicale Chigiana in Siena (28 November) and as part of a workshop with Chaya Czernowin at the Bern University of the Arts on 25 and 26 November.
A special focus of the autumn concerts is the music of Helmut Lachenmann on the occasion of his 90th birthday. Ahead of the complete performance of his three string quartets on 9 October in New York, the four musicians gave an interview to The Strad magazine about their close relationship with the composer. The complete performance of all quartets will also be heard in Graz in November.
