About

Ensemble ÉchappĂ©e’s debut Conway Hall programme explores the theme of “sweet dissonance”, something we experience in life as well as music. Framing the programme are Webern’s fleeting Bagatelles, which were described by his teacher Arnold Schoenberg as “a novel in a single gesture, joy in a single breath”. Heard in this context, the sunny melodies of Mozart’s famed “Dissonance” Quartet—so named for a single shocking note—reveal deeper layers of poignancy. The programme reaches peak indulgence in the fin-de-siĂšcle romanticism of Fritz Kreisler’s rarely heard String Quartet. Mozart, Kreisler, and Webern all use dissonance to communicate complex human feelings—but perhaps opening our ears to dissonance in music can even reveal insights into how we understand friction in our everyday human interactions, conversations, and relationships. PROGRAMME: 6.30pm Mozart | Quartet in C ‘Dissonance’ K465 Webern | Six Bagatelles Op.9 Kreisler | Quartet in A minor
