Apollon Musagète Quartet - Video

BBT Award winners in 2014, the members of the Apollon Musagète Quartet are joined by the Symphonieorchester Vorarlberg conducted by Gérard Korsten in Feldkirch, Austria.  On the bill is John Adams’ recent concerto for string quartet and orchestra, Absolute Jest, which the quartet follows with their own composition A Multitude of Shades.  Meanwhile the Quartet enthuses about the energising and magical qualities of connecting with audiences.  Indeed, they feel that they can only come together “when we perform for someone and tell a story.”
