The Danish String Quartet returns to complete its multiyear Doppelgänger Project, which has paired new commissions from leading composers with major works from Schubert’s chamber music repertoire. In this concert, the quartet is joined by Johannes Rostamo, principal cellist in the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, for Schubert’s String Quintet in C major. The work’s newly commissioned musical “twin” is a quintet by British composer Thomas Adès. The Danish Quartet has a long relationship with Adès’ music, having recorded his Arcadiana quartet for their 2016 debut album.
