Arnold SCHÖNBERG Streichquartett Nr. 1 d-Moll op. 7
Ludwig van BEETHOVEN Streichquartett Nr. 12 Es-Dur op. 127

Tickets € 28 | Free admission for persons under 26 years

For the first time, a chamber concert in cooperation with the Wiener Philharmoniker will take place at the Arnold Schönberg Center. Arnold Schönberg’s First String Quartet, op. 7 condenses a four-part cycle into a single movement lasting fifty minutes. Following a hidden program, it combines expressive immediacy with a contemporary musical language. Beethoven initiated the series of his late quartets with his equally monumental Opus 127. Combining emotional complexity with an overall unified structure, Beethoven’s final creative phase has served as a model for subsequent generations of composers right up to the modern era.

5.30 pm | Exclusively for concertgoers
