Kammermusikmatinee des Konzerthausorchesters

mit Streichquartetten von Emilie Mayer und Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy

Karoline Bestehorn

There is always something new to discover in the works of the Berlin composer Emilie Mayer (1812–1883). Our four KHO string players combine her Quartet in E minor, which ‘effectively reflects Emilie Mayer’s compositional style in the 1850s’, with Felix Mendelssohn’s last completed work. The String Quartet in F minor is one of his outstanding compositions, which he wrote in 1847 – the year of his own death – whilst reeling from the unexpected death of his beloved sister Fanny. With this work, Felix created a moving musical tribute to their sibling bond.
