From the Dark Land
The Cuarteto Bretón opens this cycle dedicated to the North American composer Gerorge Crumb with the interpretation of one of his most emblematic works, the Black Angels quartet, (Thirteen Images from the Dark Land), also known by the name of The Vietnam Quartet for reflecting the everlasting struggle between good and evil. The program is completed by Cuarteto de Cuerda by the priest, composer and organist of the Cathedral of Granada for more than half a century, Juan-Alfonso García, who in the score explains that it is not a common quartet, but rather a «music to be performed by a string quartet». And by his most advanced and internationally renowned student, José María Sánchez-Verdú, they will play Paraíso Cerrado, his ninth quartet, premiered in Hannover in 2012 and dedicated to the maestro.
