Orchestre de Paris / Andrés Orozco-Estrada
Gautier Capuçon - Tower, Chostakovitch, Dvořák
With Joan Tower's new Fanfare as a glorious portico, this program takes us from the tortured shadows of the latest Shostakovich, revealed by Gautier Capuçon's bow, to the irresistible accents of “American” Dvořák.
8:00 pm
Grande salle Pierre Boulez - Philharmonie
Quatuor Arod
Haydn
The Arod Quartet tackle a landmark of the 18th-century quartet repertoire—Haydn’s Opus 76, a set of six masterworks written by a nearly seventy-year-old composer at the peak of his craft.

Salle des concerts - Cité de la musique
Quatuor Isidore
Ligeti, Sorey, Beethoven
Separated by 120 years of string quartet history, Beethoven’s Quartet No. 6 and Tyshawn Sorey’s Everything Changes, Nothing Changes share a common quest to continually renew music and the listening experience—a spirit echoed in Ligeti’s Quartet No. 2.
