Fanny Hensel Mendelssohn - String quartet in E-flat Major (Selini Quartet)

[@petermorgan768]

From the first couple of notes, it overtakes your heart and soul. It screams 19th century romanticism, but is evident that it's a Woman's voice. That woman is Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel who deserves her place amongst the great romantic composers of that era.

Évident ...qu'est-ce qui vous donne ce sentiment dans cette partition ?

Excellent that this string quartet, composed by Fanny Hensel Mendelssohn, a sister to Felix, is played by four young women. This is wonderful music and this Selini Quartet gives it a wonderful treatment. Fanny was oppressed by that times thoughts about female musicians (she only could play at home) and hadn´t the same opportunities as Felix. Maybe will we hear more of Fannys music in the future? Thank you so much, Selini Quartet!

What an amazing piece of music composed by such a well educated lady, and how perfectly executed by this quartet!!

Wonderful performance of an unjustly forgotten wonderful quartet, what a pleasure to listen to the Selini Quartet. Our non-professional quartet (two women, two men) played the first two movements of the FM quartet at a musical retreat on Gabriola Island (west of Vancouver). Fanny's belated recognition is in global progress🤩

Something fresh and exciting in quartet repertoire. Bravo.

Marvellous, playing and work!

Seriously the best true-ensemble composition of any quartet I've heard (every part is a starring role); and a bust-the-barn-doors performance by this amazing quartet. Thanks for this!

I was just reading Alessandra Comini's latest novel, The Mendelssohn Malice, which is about the composer. It brought me here to this beautiful string quartet.

Tant de malinconie dès les premières notes.... une souffrance intérieure ?? Très belle exécution...

Whether I'm feeling happy, sad or everything in between, guitar music is always there for me. It's a constant companion on this journey we call life.

[@staffanolofsson8201]

Guitar, this?

You know the difference between a guitar and 4 not a guitars, right?
