Its grace and charm - and its small, but quietly revolutionary steps forward in harmony and structure - were a welcome tonic between two works that did not aim for either quality.įor “Imagination Dead Imagine,” Quartet Nouveau appeared in casual clothes to don earpieces and tap a laptop’s spacebar to launch our journey into Beckett’s meditation on death and nothingness, things that only imagination can conceive. In the end, Beethoven’s relation to the bar mitzvah or to the Beckett work which received its world premiere after intermission was irrelevant. 3 string quartet - played with scrupulous intensity by Quartet Nouveau: violinists MacAdam-Somer and Missy Lukin violist Annabelle Terbetski, and cellist Elizabeth Brown - immediately followed “Labor Day 1967” as if it were organically linked in some way.
