Bridge Three Idylls 12' Stanford Quartet No 5 in B flat 32' Judith Weir String Quartet 13' Elgar String Quartet in E minor 30' The Sussex woodlands which inspired Elgar shine through in his quartet, the ‘captured sunshine’ of the middle movement being much loved by his wife; Elgar chose it to be played at her funeral. Bright summer days and dark winter evenings are captured masterfully by Bridge in his evocative Three Idylls, and Stanford pens a moving musical tribute to his friend Joseph Joachim in his Quartet No 5. Judith Weir’s lyrical String Quartet, based on song fragments, is also brought to life in this exquisite programme by the award-winning Dante Quartet.
