Anton Webern s "Lent Phrase" for string quartet was performed as part of the "My GAIA" concert during the Festival 2012 edition. Composée en 1905, "la plus Lente, la Phrase" is in traditional sonata form and in the key of C Major; it would be another twenty years before Webern turned to twelve-tone technique. "La plus lente, la Phrase" premiered en 1962, seventeen years after Webern s death, and has the longest playing time of any piece in his body of work.
