Manchester Universities String Society draws together some of the finest student string players from the Royal Northern College of Music and the University of Manchester to present innovative and exciting programmes from the string orchestra repertoire. MUSS’ programme for the Whitworth Art Gallery comprises Janáček’s little-known gem, Idyll for Strings, and, to resonate with the re-opening of the gallery, two existing works in a new guise: Shostakovich’s String Quartet No.8 and Beethoven’s Kreutzer Sonata with prize-winning soloist Kana Ohashi, both arranged for string orchestra.
Programme
Leoš Janáček (1854-1928) – Idyll For Strings
Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975) – String Quartet No.8 in C Minor (for string orchestra)
Ludwig Van Beethoven (1770-1827) - Violin Sonata No. 9 ‘Kreutzer’ (arr. for string orchestra)
