In the organizer's words:
With his piano concerto Al Fajr (Arabic for dawn), premiered in 2017 by Daniel Barenboim in the Pierre Boulez Hall, the Lebanese-French composer Benjamin Attahir began a cycle of instrumental works inspired by the five Islamic prayers at different times of the day. The string quartet of the Staatskapelle Berlin presents Al Asr - the afternoon prayer - the third part of this series. Also to be heard are Mozart's last and Smetana's autobiographical First String Quartet.
