THE CAPITOL ENSEMBLE PERFORM MOZART AND SCHUMANN
LISTEN TO SOME OF THE MOST BELOVED CHAMBER MUSIC EVER WRITTEN, IN THE WONDERFUL ACOUSTICS OF CONTRAPUNTAL HALL, PERFORMED BY LOS ANGELES PREMIERE CHAMBER ENSEMBLE.
MOZART'S STRING QUARTET K.465 "THE DISSONANT", GETS ITS NAME FROM THE STRANGE YET BEGUILING INTRODUCTION TO THE PIECE. BACK IN THE DAY, IT WAS THOUGHT TO BE A MISTAKE AND WAS SENT BACK TO THE PUBLISHERS.
EVEN HAYDN EXPRESSED SOME SHOCK, BUT DEFENDED IT BY SAYING "IF MOZART WROTE IT, HE MUST HAVE MEANT IT.
FULL OF BEAUTIFUL MELODIES, IRRESISTIBLE CHARM AND SPONTANEITY, SCHUMANN'S PIANO QUINTET OP.44 IS A MASTERPIECE AND THE FIRST WORK EVER WRITTEN FOR SUCH A COMBINATION. TRULY INSPIRED CRAFTSMANSHIP MAKES THIS WORK ONE OF THE COMPOSERS SUPREME ACHIEVEMENTS.
