The third of the Albion Quartet’s cycle reflects on the themes of loss and defiance. Beethoven’s F minor Quartet was composed in late 1810 during the Napoleonic War and Britten’s Second Quartet was composed in 1945 amid feelings of loss, relief and euphoria at the end of the Second World War. Dvořák’s Eighth Quartet is tinged with sadness and nostalgia, but also with defiance and strength.
