About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Classical
- Description: After a first volume praised by the press, including an Editor's Choice in Gramophone, the Quatuor Van Kuijk concludes it's complete recording of Mendelssohn's string quartets with op.44 nos. 2 and 3 and the Quartet op.80, which bears the mark of the sudden death in 1847 of his sister Fanny, to whom he was very close, at the age of only forty-two. As Stéphane Goldet writes in the booklet 'The act of resistance that is the Quartet op.80, written in a single burst during the summer of 1847, it's overwhelming InchNo, not that, not her!Inch shouted by four instruments for twenty-five minutes, was to be the composer's last completed work. The four movements of this Inchconfrontation with griefInch (Bernard Fournier) in F minor are to be played con dolore, although that marking never appears in the score.' She goes on to quote Brigitte François-Sappey 'This InchRequiem for FannyInch might be called InchDeath and the Young WomanInch. As in Schubert's last two quartets, the strings shiver in tremolos over ostinato pedals, like death knells.' Album Tracks 1. String Quartet No. 6 in F minor, Op. 80~I. Allegro vivace assai 2.
