Mendelssohn: Op. 13, Op. 14 No. 2, Four Pieces - Arod Quartet

The Arod Quartet, founded just four years ago in Paris, makes it's debut on Erato with an album of Mendelssohn, tracing his life through his works for string quartet. The composer has been important for the ensemble, not least by helping it win two major competitions. The members of the Arod have been mentored by both the Ebène and Artemis Quartet, and they collaborate here with a further Erato artist, the mezzo-soprano Marianne Crebassa, in a performance of the song 'Ist es wahr?'
