about

A festival essential, the now legendary Argonaut Quartet returned to the Capital stage for BIFEM’s 2018 opening night. In this rich, layered concert, Taiwanese-Australian composer Annie Hui-Hsin Hsieh’s newest string quartet, Dwindling as the Beginning of More Vibrant Things, received its Australian premiere. Following on from his BIFEM début with defunensemble in 2015, Finnish composer Sami Klemola made a welcome return to BIFEM through the Australian premiere of his string quartet Concrete. Perth-based Polish composer Dobromiła Jaskot and US composer Michelle Lou made their BIFEM débuts, each with works of stunning beauty and acuity. A consistent highlight of the BIFEM experience, the Argonaut Quartet was in 2018 once again a remarkable musical event within a festival with a solid A+ rating.
