NEW ORFORD STRING QUARTET
Digital Concert at The Barn / Saturday, April 17th, 2021
A special performance of the third movement from Beethoven’s String Quartet No. 15 in A minor, Op. 132. Dubbed “Heiliger Dankgesang” (Holy Song of Thanksgiving), Beethoven composed this piece upon recovering from a serious illness. Embracing hope for the future, principal players of the Montreal & Toronto Symphony interpret this magnificent piece amidst the restorative beauty of the Westben grounds.

About The New Orford String Quartet
Four musicians with equally stellar pedigrees formed the New Orford String Quartet with the goal of developing a new model for a touring string quartet. Their concept – to bring four elite orchestral leaders together on a regular basis over many years to perform chamber music at the highest level – has resulted in a quartet that maintains a remarkably fresh perspective while bringing a palpable sense of joy to each performance. The Toronto Star has described this outcome as “nothing short of electrifying.”Click Here to learn more.
