RAVEL String Quartet in F (30')

Ravel’s glorious, rhapsodic Quartet is the joyous conclusion of this concert of string music composed for, and used in, cinema. From Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood’s spare and spectral score for Paul Thomas Anderson’s Oscar-winning There Will Be Blood, to Bernard Herman’s iconic music composed for Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho, and Philip Glass’s String Quartet No.3 (composed for the 1985 film Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters), the Piatti Quartet showcases the captivating range of chamber music composed for the big screen.

The Piatti Quartet have been described by composer Julian Anderson as “living treasures of chamber music... meticulous attention to detail is combined with strong expressive impulse and a wonderful sense of musical drama” and return to the Playhouse after several rapturously received concerts across their stellar career.
