Two great romantics: Schumann and Mendelssohn

Schumann String Quartet No.1, Op.41 no.1

Schumann wrote only three quartets, all in 1842. The first is a really polished work, with much variety of melody, rhythm and mood, from the dainty and sublime to the severe and rollicking. Guaranteed to please, this is a work that you'll enjoy from the first listening.

Mendelssohn Quartet no. 3 in D Major, op.44 no. 1.

This is a quartet from Mendelssohn's middle period. It's a jolly work, full of joie de vivre, exuberance and charm.

JS Bach

Sonata in C major for 2 Violins, BWV 1037 

With violin and harpsichord

Earlier this month we heard the six solo violin sonatas and partitas of JS Bach. The sonatas for keyboard and violin are much lighter, jolly, easy-listening music. The Double Concerto in D minor is one of Bach's most well known works. 

The musicians are all overseas educated and among the best in Thailand. Anna studied at Manhatten School of Music. She has performed twice at Eelswamp. Kasina studies at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna, and Akkra studied at McGill and John Hopkins music schools in the US. I have heard all of the musicians both at Eelswamp and in Bangkok. They are all excellent.
