The Ying Quartet have crafted a deeply introspective journey for their first Monday concert of the season. We begin with Mozart, then turn to the quartet Janáček composed as a musical counterpart to his epistolary courtship of Kamila Stösslová. At last, Smetana’s poignant autobiography: after scoring his years of wistful youth and romance, the work concludes with an anguished representation of the deafness that he developed in his old age.
