The Element String Quartet: Ernest Element (violin) Sylvia Cleaver (violin) Dorothy Hemming (viola) Norman Jones (cello) Herbert Downes (viola)
Emanuel Aloys Forster, who was born in Silesia in 1748, taught himself composition by studying the works of C.P.E. Bach; later he settled in Vienna, where he was influenced by Mozart, and his works became the model for Beethoven's early string quartets. He died in Vienna in 1823. This is the first of two programmes, each of which consists of a quartet by Mozart and a quintet by Förster. The second programme will be broadcast on Wednesday at 9.40. D.C.
