Takács Quartet
John Innes Centre, Norwich
The focus of the Takács Quartet's current season is Beethoven – a complete cycle of the 17 quartets that they have divided into pairs of programmes, and have spaced out between this month and next May. But any opportunity to see even a part of this exceptional musical event should be seized upon. This is chamber-music playing of overwhelming intensity, insight and intelligence, simply the best I have ever heard in concert.
In the wonderfully detailed and warm acoustic of Norwich's John Innes Centre, each of the four players brought his or her own ideas to the performance, and each performance became a journey of exploration for the audience, not only to rediscover the astonishing variety of Beethoven's invention in these works, but also some of the multitude of ways of interpreting it.
There's simply no other quartet around today that comes within touching distance of the Takács.
