Catalyzed by Beethoven's own arrangement of the famous Grosse Fuge op. 133, the duo presents Hugo Ulrich and Robert Wittman's stately transcription of the op. 130 string quartet to which the iconic fugue originally belonged, alongside Schubert's brooding F minor Fantasie, D. 940. Pianists Stephanie Ho and Saar Ahuvia collaborate as DUO Stephanie \u0026amp; Saar in dazzling performances filled with visceral excitement, elegance and artistic vision. The duo are founders and artistic directors of Makrokosmos Project, a critically acclaimed Oregon-based new music festival featuring dynamic American composers of our time. In it's sixth year, the festival is entirely driven by community support. Some of the featured composers include Kenji Bunch, Gabriela Lena Frank, Caroline Shaw, Julia Wolfe, John Luther Adams, Karen Tanaka, Michael Johanson and Alexander Schwarzkopf, among many others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 String Quartet in B-Flat Major, Op. 130~Adagio ma non troppo - Allegro \u003cbr\u003e1.2 String Quartet in B-Flat Major, Op. 130~Presto \u003cbr\u003e1.3 String Quartet in B-Flat Major, Op. 130~Andante con moto ma non troppo \u003cbr\u003e1.4 String Quartet in B-Flat Major, Op. 130~Alla danza tedesca.
