Gidon Kremer and Mario Brunello pay tribute to Beethoven by presenting two of his most famous quartets in a version for string orchestra played by Kremerata Baltica. The ensemble's founder Gidon Kremer directs 'Op. 131' from the violin, while Mario Brunello conducts 'Op. 135' and adds two contemporary pieces, one by Léo Ferré, 'the revolutionary, anarchic, inspired singer-songwriter and great lover of Beethoven': 'Muss es sein? Es muss sein!' 'We perform this hymn to 'free music'' in a version arranged by Valter Sivilotti for cello, strings and percussion with Ferré's original voice.
