Formerly known as the Alcan String Quartet for reasons we can only guess, the Saguenay Quartet has recorded the complete Beethoven String Quartets, a must for any self-respecting music lover. For this Montreal stopover at the august Église de la Visitation, this experienced ensemble, one of the best string quartets in the country, performs Quartet No. 1, Op. 18, as well as Quartet No. 7, Op. 59 No. 1 in F major. This is another event commemorating the 250th anniversary of the birth of the famous composer.
