David Philip Hefti at the Konzerthaus Berlin (September 2024)
On September 30, 2024, the Amaryllis Quartet will perform David Philip Hefti’s seventh string quartet “Ans Ende der Zeit” at the Konzerthaus Berlin. The work will be performed at the invitation of Christian Jost in his concert format “2xhören”. Following the performance, Christian Jost will hold a discussion with the musicians and composer David Philip Hefti before the piece is performed. “Be surprised how much your ears have opened up when the piece is heard for the second time!” is the slogan of this innovative concert series.
David Philip Hefti’s seventh string quartet “Ans Ende der Zeit” was commissioned by Graz Opera for the in-house ballet company. The premiere with the Graz Opera Ballet in a choreography by ballet director Beate Vollack and with the PhilQuartet of the Graz Philharmonic took place in May 2023. Since then, the work has been performed several times in concert.
David Philip Hefti has a long-standing collaboration with the Amaryllis Quartet, during which most of his compositions have been performed for this ensemble.
