Work: String Octet in C major, Op.7

A concert of Mendelssohn and Enescu octets which proves that eight can be more than four plus four.

Sometimes you just marvel at the level of musical inspiration and the virtuosic quality of the playing. The two octets by Mendelssohn and Enescu make a very satisfying pairing.

Discovering Enescu through the lens of his folkloric genes was the beginning of the musical adventure that awaits listeners in the Lockenhaus Chamber Music Festival in Austria.
