Intimate Letters & Inner Voices | String Quartet

Janáček named his Second String Quartet “Intimate Letters,” as it was inspired by his passionate obsession with a woman to whom he wrote over 700 letters; the work contains some of the composer’s most ardent music. Paired with this piece is Sibelius’s only mature string quartet, which he referred to as “Inner Voices” for its inwardness and contemplation. Join musicians from the Detroit Symphony Orchestra for this stunning and intimate evening of chamber music.
