BARTรK String Quartet No. 3 (arr. Konopka)
BARTรK Suite from ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐ช๐ณ๐ข๐ค๐ถ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ด ๐๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ข๐ณ๐ช๐ฏ
Music Director Franz Welser-Mรถst and the Orchestra thread two of Bartรณkโs demanding visions into a single, emotionally charged arc. Paired with favorites from Bartรณkโs ballet ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐ช๐ณ๐ข๐ค๐ถ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ด ๐๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ข๐ณ๐ช๐ฏ, violist Stanley Konopka premieres his new arrangement of Bartรณkโs Third String Quartet โ a score he devoured during his tumultuous Chicago adolescence, a time when โBartรณk became kind of my Metallica.โ Now amplified for double string orchestra, the music of the quartet swells to symphonic scale, taking on the expanded sonority long envisioned by Konopka.
