Einzelheiten: Kurzbeschreibung The second volume of "Mendelssohn - Complete Chamber Music for Strings" is dedicated to compositions from the last third of the composer's life which span a mere ten years but display a vastly different composer: Opp. 44 the well-known mature formal and tonal voice; Op. 80 a raw tormented cry from the last months of his life. Biographie der Mitwirkenden The canard that Mendelssohn lost his vital spark towards the end, never persuasive, is blown sky-high by the tremendous Op 80 quartet. Perhaps inspiration faltered in midlife. In the D major, the first of the Op 44s, he seems to be going through the motions expertly, gracefully, but, except in the finale, without the old animation. The molto allegro vivace begins like a pale echo of the great octet s similar opening. The outstanding Mandelring Quartett, however, play both it and the E minor with the utmost conviction, and their account of Op 80 does justice to that harrowing expression of Mendelssohn s despair at the death of his beloved sister Fanny.
