Shostakovich cycle
We are celebrating the Shostakovich Year 2025 with a cycle of his string quartets.
Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975) is one of the most important composers of the 20th century - and at the same time one whose musical questioning is incredibly contemporary. We are taking the Shostakovich Year 50 years after the composer's death as an opportunity for a Shostakovich cycle over two seasons with all of his string quartets.
In January 2025, the Jerusalem Quartet performed string quartets nos. 1 to 9 over the course of three concerts.
In the 2025/26 season, the Jerusalem Quartet will complete the cycle with string quartets nos. 10 to 15.
