Felix Mendelssohn’s rousing Octet for Strings, composed when the wunderkind was just 16 years old, is one of the most beloved works in all of classical music. The celebrated Daedalus Quartet joins DACAMERA favorites the Brentano Quartet for a spirited rendition of the masterpiece in this premiere stream. The free virtual event opens with a new performance by the Brentano Quartet of two rarely-heard Mendelssohn pieces for string quartet from the last year of his life.
