Concert 3: The ECSQ Plays Beach, Roumain & Beethoven

March 15 - 22, 2026

[EN] The ECSQ opens their first concert of the new year with a wonderfully varied program. The show opens with String Quartet in One Movement by Amy Beach, the first American female composer to experience popular and critical acclaim in classical music. String Quartet No. 5 by Daniel Bernard Roumain is dedicated to U.S. civil rights leader Rosa Parks, and the piece traces Parks’ journey of struggle, survival, and lasting legacy. The program concludes with Beethoven’s String Quartet No. 13, a sprawling six-movement masterwork whose finale is the very last piece he ever wrote.

[FR] L'ECSQ ouvre leur première concert de 2026 avec un programme super varié. Le concert commence avec le Quatuor à cordes d'Amy Beach, la première compositrice américaine à connaître le succès populaire dans le domaine de la musique classique. Le Quatuor à cordes n° 5 de Daniel Bernard Roumain est dédié à Rosa Parks, figure emblématique du mouvement américain des droits civiques.  L'œuvre retrace le parcours difficile de Rosa Parks et l'héritage durable qu'elle a laissé.  Le programme se termine avec le Quatuor à cordes n° 13 de Beethoven, un chef-d'œuvre en six mouvements dont le finale est la toute dernière pièce qu'il a composée.
