Mitja Quartet - Gaetano Donizetti: String Quartets, Vol. II

Volume two of the Mitja Quartets critically acclaimed survey of Donizeti's String Quartets.

Saving the imagination. This was one of the secrets of good composition ('sparing the imagination and conducting a piece with a few ideas') according to Donizetti. Indeed, this economy of invention proved especially effective in chamber music, particularly in its noblest formation: the string quartet. This second box marks a further step towards the recording of the complete opera released by the strings of the Mitja Quartet.
