Complete Str Qrts [CD], Minguet Quartet, CD

Mendelssohn composed in all genres common at the time, from piano music to opera. Chamber music also played an important role with 30 works: In addition to four piano quartets, two sonatas each for violin and piano and cello and piano, two string quintets, a piano sextet and an octet, he wrote seven string quartets, which are now available in their entirety in the gripping interpretation of the Minguet Quartet in this set.
