Description: Further DetailsTitle: Bennewitz Quartet: Ullmann/Krása/Schulhoff/HaasCondition: NewDescription: The composers whose music is featured on this album lived and worked in Czechoslovakia between the two world wars, and their fates were afflicted by the monstrous Nazi regime. Viktor Ullmann, who before WWII held the post of Kapellmeister at the New German Theatre, wrote 'Quartet No. 3' while he was detained at the Theresienstadt ghetto-camp. Hans Krása completed the 'Theme and Variations' in 1936, yet he only saw it performed in Theresienstadt, along with his children's opera 'Brundibár'. Erwin Schulhoff's 'Five Pieces' reveal his zest for rhythm and dance. Pavel Haas's 'Quartet No. 2', dating from 1925, serves as vivid proof of the claim that the composer was the most gifted pupil of Leos Janá?ek. The Bennewitz Quartet launched their international career following their victories at the prestigious competition in Osaka (2005) and the Prémio Paolo Borciani in Italy (2008). Ever since they have regularly performed at the world's most prominent venues (Wigmore Hall in London, Musikverein in Vienna, Konzerthaus in Berlin, Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris, concert halls in New York, Seoul, etc.) and festivals (Salzburger Festspiele, Lucerne Festival, Rheingau Musik Festival, etc.).Artist: Bennewitz QuartetFormat: CDEdition: AlbumNo Of Discs: 1Record Label: Supraphon RecordsRelease Date: 04/12/2019Composer: Pavel Haas, Viktor Ullmann, Hans Krasa, Erwin SchulhoffGenre: ClassicalStyle: ChamberEAN: 0099925426521MPN: SU42652Release Year: 2019Tracks: 1: I.
