Product description

Dive into the world of George Onslow, a French composer of English descent, with this exquisite collection of string quartets. Released in 2015 on the Aparté label, this album showcases Onslow's mastery of chamber music, a genre in which he is best known for his contributions that follow the musical lineage of Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven. The album features the talented Quatuor Ruggieri, who bring to life Onslow's intricate compositions with precision and passion.

This album is a journey through Onslow's Op. 8 and Op. 10 string quartets, offering a rich tapestry of musical expression. From the dramatic opening of Quatuor No. 1 en Ut Mineur, Op. 8 No. 3 to the lively finale of Quatuor No. 3 en La Majeur, Op. 8 No. 3, each piece is a testament to Onslow's compositional prowess. The album also includes the charming Air de danse des montagnes d'Auvergne in Quatuor No. 3 en Mi Bémol Majeur, Op. 10 No. 1, adding a touch of regional flavor to the collection.

With a duration of 1 hour and 2 minutes, this album is a perfect companion for those seeking to explore the depths of classical chamber music. Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast or a newcomer to the genre, George Onslow's string quartets are sure to captivate and inspire.
