F. Mendelssohn-Bartholdy (1809-1847)
Quartet No. 2 in A minor op. 13

SOLD OUT

In the Biblioteca “G. Baratta ”we will find a barely eighteen year old Felix Mendelssohn with his Quartet no. 2 op. 13, composed in 1827. A symbol of esteem and devotion to the recently deceased Ludwig van Beethoven. Much of Beethoven is in this quartet, from the idea of a single motif which, worked and varied, constitutes the entire quartet, to the most subtle parallelism of the incipit with a question: Mendelssohn’s self-quotation of one of his (Lied Ist es wahr?) as the “Muss es sein?” of op. 135 Beethovenian.
