Amsterdam’s Dudok String Quartet is a major force on the European music scene. With its ethos of ‘sharing the heart of music’, the quartet believes that chamber music is an act of friendship and play to be shared directly with audiences. 
‘What Remains’ by Dutch composer Joey Roukens is a meditation on time and memory. Influenced by Steve Reich, Roukens’ rich musical palette evokes memories, ghosts, ruins from a bygone age. Schubert’s great ‘Death and the Maiden’ Quartet is a passionate, drama-filled exposition of his view of the afterlife as both terrifying and consoling.
“Gripping performances...you’ll find yourself within the prickling skins of these works – and on the edge of your seat.” The Strad

The essence of Chamber Music is in the intimacy. You are close enough to the players to be aware of what they are putting into the music and to witness the skill of the performers in a way that you can't with an orchestra. It is the most live of live music.
