Our Take

The Minguet Quartet brings a fresh, modern interpretation to the timeless classics of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy on their latest album. Op. 12 and Op. 81 are masterpieces in their own right, but the quartet's dynamic playing adds a new layer of excitement to these well-loved pieces.

From the opening notes of Op. 12, the Minguet Quartet grabs your attention and never lets go. Their precision and passion shine through in every movement, bringing out the emotions and complexities of Mendelssohn's compositions.

But it's not just the famous string quartets that shine on this album. The inclusion of the lesser-known String Quartet (1823) is a delightful surprise, showcasing Mendelssohn's early brilliance and the quartet's versatility.

The Minguet Quartet's chemistry is palpable, with each member contributing their own unique flair to the ensemble. Their interplay is seamless, with each musician complementing the others perfectly.

Overall, the Minguet Quartet's rendition of Mendelssohn's string quartets is a triumph. They breathe new life into these classical works, making them feel fresh and exciting once again. This album is a must-listen for any classical music lover, as well as those looking to discover the magic of Mendelssohn for the first time. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let the Minguet Quartet take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget.
