Epilogue

2004

On March 23, Oxingale will release the first recording collaboration of the acclaimed Miró Quartet and famed cellist Matt Haimovitz in a CD titled Epilogue. Together, Miró and Haimovitz perform Schubert's ethereal C major String Quintet (D 956), and the Miro' Quartet alone performs Mendelssohn's stormy, final String Quartet in F minor (Op. 80). Epilogue explores two strikingly different works, each written in the last months in the lives of two contemporary early Romantic composers, Franz Schubert and Felix Mendelssohn.
