The Jubilee Quartet, returning for the third time, is made up of four musicians from across the globe. Webern’s Langsamer Satz, a love song to the woman he would later marry, lay woefully undiscovered in an attic until the early 1960s and is now getting the exposure it truly deserves – in this programme nestled between Haydn’s genre-defining work and Smetana’s great autobiographical one in a continued celebration of the Year of Czech Music.
