SUMMARY:Cramer Quartet Premieres du Bois' String Quartet No. 6
DESCRIPTION:String Quartet no. 6\, commissioned by Cramer Quartet\, will receive its world premiere at Connecticut's Music Mountain Festival. More information to be released via https://www.cramerquartet.com\nHaydn: Dialogues is a multi-season commissioning project that reimagines the traditional string quartet cycle. Over the course of the next ten seasons\, concluding in 2032 (Haydn’s 300th birth anniversary)\, the Cramer Quartet will perform Haydn’s 68 string quartets alongside newly commissioned works by composers of marginalized identities. Each commission is an invitation to respond to an opus from Haydn’s string quartet oeuvre in the composer’s own musical voice\, writing specifically for historical instruments.\nThe first installment of Haydn: Dialogues will premiere in New York City on April 3\, 2022 with a new work by American composer Alexandra du Bois performed alongside Haydn’s Op. 20 No. 3 and Op. 20 No. 6 quartets.\nWith this project\, the quartet marries its passion for historical performance with a commitment to rebalancing the string quartet canon by centering the voices of women\, non-(cis)males\, BIPOC\, LGBTQ+ folx and other communities historically underrepresented in classical music.
