Description Heiner Müller Quartet 
(after Laclos Les Liaisons Dangereuses, translated by Carl Weber). 
Quartet revels in the decadence and degradation of Liaisons, taking both to dripping modernist heights, as Laclos' two protagonists switch characters and sexes in a roleplay of boundless fetish and the ruination of virtue. Annie Hsieh The Razor
(after Haydn String Quartet in F min Op.55 No.2 'The Razor'). 
An enervating new composition, which (as Müller departed from Laclos) carries with it the original Haydn in the face of two fewer players, and rejoices in the ensuing performative.
