Chamber music (5) - ROctet plays a beloved and a wondrous octet

Programme

  • Woldemar Bargiel String octet in c, opus 15a
  • Felix Mendelssohn String Octet in E-flat, opus 20

Two concert masters, two first violinists, two altists and two cellists from the Radio Philharmonic Orchestra joined forces in 2016 and have since formed the Netherlands' only permanent string octet: ROctet. Alongside perhaps the most beloved octet ever written, that of Felix Mendelssohn, we are introduced to the wonderful music of Woldemar Bargiel (1828-1897), contemporary and brother-in-law of Robert Schumann.
