The Ligeti Quartet make a welcome return to the New Music Series. And they’ll be back with an evening dedicated to the musical giant who gave them their name, the Hungarian avant-garde sonic wizard György Ligeti. His music became famous after director Stanley Kubrick used it to such incredible effect in 2001: A Space Odyssey. Ligeti’s 2nd String Quartet captures a similar mood, flipping from ferocious intensity to the most astounding sense of stillness.
