Mendelssohn and Brahms are known for their soaring romantic melodies with waves of magical phrases that wash over you in a concert. Both works in this concert feature an iconic movement. Mendelssohn’s string quartet features the charming and second movement Canzonetta, so popular with the public that is has been played as a separate work. Brahms’ string sextet features an additional viola and cello complementing the typical quartet ensemble. The Hungarian theme and its variations from the second movement have been used in several movies and TV series.
This performance is part of the Auburn Symphony Orchestra Chamber Music Series.
