Haydn: String Quartet in D Op.76 No.5 Bartók: String Quartet No.5 Beethoven: String Quartet in C sharp minor Op.131 Taking its name from the Dutch graphic artist, M C Escher, the Escher Quartet was formed in 2005 and was immediately invited to perform at the summer festivals of both Pinchas Zukerman and Itzhak Perlman. They regularly give concerts at major chamber music venues from coast to coast in the USA. The Quartet opened the 2011-2012 season of The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. They were selected as BBC’s ‘New Generation Artists’’ for 2010-2012 and will play at Wigmore Hall the day after their concert at Holkham. Recording plans include two discs for BBC and the complete Zemlinksy Quartets for Naxos. Three cornerstones of the string quartet repertoire make up their strong programme.
