Takács Quartet
with Jeremy Denk, piano
“One of the greatest chamber string ensembles we have on the world stage” (Scherzo Magazine), the Takács Quartet visits with two riveting programs this season. For the first, the group is joined by pianist Jeremy Denk for Brahms’ Piano Quintet in F minor—among the towering creations in the composer’s catalog in its skilled mingling of moods, from majesty, serenity, and joy to tension, foreboding, and despair. Denk, a MacArthur “Genius” award winner and well-regarded author, is already beloved by Berkeley audiences for his intelligence, humor, and interpretive insight, making this an exhilarating artistic matchup!
This performance is made possible, in part, by Jeffrey MacKie-Mason and Janet Netz.
| BEETHOVEN | String Quartet in F major, Op. 18, No. 1 |
| JANÁČEK | String Quartet No. 1, The Kreutzer Sonata |
| BRAHMS | Piano Quintet in F minor, Op. 34 |
The Program Book will be available approximately one week before the performance.
