Description:

Das Bartholdy Quintett ist eines der wenigen festen Streichquintette. HÃ¤ufig lÃ¤dt sich fÃ¼r dieses Repertoire ein Streichquartett einen weiteren Bratscher ein oder es treffen sich fÃ¼nf Solisten zu einem Quintett-Projekt. FÃ¼r seine Einspielung der Quintette von Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy verwendet das Ensemble eine neue Ausgabe des Henle Verlags, die sich konsequent an der ursprÃ¼nglichen Handschrift orientiert. Als Bonustracks wurden beim B-Dur-Quintett das bekannte, allerdings von Julius Rietz bearbeitete, Finale aufgenommen und beim A-Dur-Quintett in einer Ersteinspielung das Minuetto, das ursprÃ¼nglich als Intermezzo an zweiter oder dritter Stelle vorgesehen war. - .. QUINTETS

The artists write: "In February 2009, on a date very close to the celebration of Mendelssohn's 200th birthday, we got together for the first time in a quintet lineup in order to perform a small concert in the form of a public rehearsal. The repertoire was rapidly chosen: it had to include at least one piece by Mendelssohn. After that successful experiment, we spontaneously decided upon the composer's second surname for our new quintet..." Next to Mozart the two String Quintets by Felix Mendelssohn are probably the most known and famous string quartets in the classical genre. This album is the second from the ensemble on Avi after having released their highly acclaimed first album with works by Bruckner and Zemlinsky in 2016, just 5 years prior.
