The Anzû Quartet will be performing French composer Olivier Messiaen’s Quatuor pour la fin du temps, the towering masterpiece of the 20th century famously composed and premiered in the Stalag VIIA Prisoner of War Camp in 1941. The quartet, inspired by the Book of Revelation, birdsong, and Messiaen’s experience of synesthesia, reflects the juxtaposing themes of immeasurable destruction, religious salvation, hope, and devastation. The Anzû Quartet is dedicated to performing this work as well as to cultivating and commissioning a new repertoire to complement and expand upon this instrumentation.
