Together with the newly published NCA catalogue is the renowned Gewandhaus Quartet with a brilliant recording of Mendelssohn’s String Quartet No. 3 in D major Op.44/1 and Schumann’s String Quartet No.1 in A minor Op.41. Both works enjoyed resounding success at their respective premiere performances at the Gewandhaus - Mendelssohn's work in 1839, Schumann’s work four years later in 1843. This recording was made in 2000.
The Gewandhaus Quartet was formed in 1808 and is therefore the oldest string quartet in the world. It offers the very highest level of chamber music, a fact underlined by their worldwide success.
