Programme

Overview

Witness Beethoven’s last string quartets reborn as the Sacconi Quartet and director Tom Morris perform Op. 131, Op. 132 and Op. 130 entirely from memory in an intimate chamber setting. A rare chance to experience these visionary masterpieces up close with renewed immediacy.Step inside the heart of Beethoven’s final string quartets with Beethoven by Heart, an immersive chamber experience directed by Tom Morris and brought to life by the Sacconi Quartet. In an intimate chamber hall, the four musicians set aside their music stands, performing Op. 131, Op. 132 and Op. 130 entirely from memory. This bold approach dissolves the boundary between performer and listener, allowing you to witness the quartet’s nuanced communication — the shared glances, subtle shifts and spontaneous interplay that reveal the full humanity and power of Beethoven’s late style. From the visionary opening of the seven-movement Op. 131 to the profound spirituality of Op. 132 and the dramatic grandeur of Op. 130, each work unfolds with renewed immediacy, guided by bespoke lighting and thoughtful spoken introductions that illuminate the music’s emotional depths. Celebrating 25 years together, the Sacconi Quartet draw on decades of insight to present these monumental works with striking clarity. Relax on unreserved beanbags or chairs at the centre of the stage and feel every dynamic swell and hushed whisper of Beethoven’s timeless genius.
