But the four musicians—closely associated with the Pierre Boulez Saal since its opening more than six years ago—have also championed contemporary music and commissioned several new works. In a program bookended by Bartók’s First and Beethoven’s Twelfth String Quartet, they now perform a new piece by British composer Julian Anderson.
