From Perkinson’s String Trio, written on his deathbed, to Klein’s String Trio, completed nine days before his deportation to Auschwitz, the pieces on this program are in conversation with death. Mortality is the inescapable deadline which impels all events and actions; without mortality there would be no urgency. Although death only retroactively structures a person’s life narrative, with only those left behind fully understanding the context of each moment within the deceased's lives, works like Beethoven’s String Quartet Op. 132 seem uncannily in tune with the composer’s personal timeline. Can we, on some spiritual level, clock our physical battery? What role does fate have in our psyche? - Anna Han
