“It feels as though Haydn’s music is the foundation upon which our quartet is built... a movement of Haydn can feel like a riddle to be solved, something to be interacted with.” – @RuisiQuartet PRE-ADD the album to your library NOW on @AppleMusic. ➡️lnk.to/BigHouse

'Musical notation is such a bad format – you lose so much by putting music into black marks on a page, so to be able to talk to the person who wrote it is liberating' – my interview with @MaxRuisi ahead of tonight's @12ensemble @BarbicanCentre concert. barbican.org.uk/digital-prog…
