BARBER
 Adagio from String Quartet Op.11 (9')

 Appalachian Spring (30')

Members of the celebrated Elias Quartet join forces with their friends and former colleagues in Ensemble 360 for this very special concert. The first half features Strauss’s beloved late work Metamorphosen in its rare string septet version; a brooding meditation on change that is deeply moving and filled with yearning. Barber’s sumptuous and iconic Adagio also features, alongside Copland’s large-scale chamber suite, Appalachian Spring. Originally a ballet score, it’s a celebration of peace and freedom, and a depiction of Appalachia that weaves together folk melodies in a joyous, life-affirming piece.
