REBEL REBEL
Beethoven's String Quartet in F minor was an experiment; never designed to be played in public, this was music written by a revolutionary to test the boundaries of what was possible, what was deemed acceptable. This programme centres around this unique spirit; composers that share Beethoven's sense of exploration and revolt in works written centuries later.
