This concert is like a painting charting a course through the history of Italian music. It’s often thought that the most famous music from Italy is operatic, but this programme includes folk, medieval, and modern genres. Compositions by the quartet’s own cellist, Cosimo Carovani, can be found to incorporate the many ‘voices’ of Italy in a contemporary fashion.
