Schubert's String Quartet in G, D887, from the Schwarzenberg Schubertiade 2023.

The Pavel Haas Quartet begin a week of lunchtime concerts from Schwarzenberg in the Austrian mountains, with Schubert's String Quartet in G, D887.

Sarah Walker presents highlights of this year’s Schubertiade, a celebration of Schubert’s music held in the Austrian village of Schwarzenberg, famed for its traditional rustic wooden houses. The concerts took place in the Angelika Kauffmann Hall, a handsome timber-framed building overlooking idyllic mountain pastures, whose exquisite acoustics and intimate atmosphere make it an ideal venue for Schubert’s chamber music. 

Today, the Pavel Hass Quartet play Schubert’s last quartet.
