Today's concert begins with two Nocturnes by Faur茅 performed in the National Concert Hall, Dublin by Michel Dalberto, a member of the Capu莽on Trio. The invention of the Nocturne is attributed to the Irishman, John Field and Faur茅 uses the form to present his profound writing for piano. Dalbeto begins with the bleak and almost despairing, Nocturne No 7 and couples it with the Nocturne No. 6 which is one of Faur茅's most loved works, perhaps because of its achingly beautiful opening theme.

In March 1837, Felix Mendelssohn married Cecile Jeanrenaud in Frankfurt, and during the summer they extended the honeymoon with a stay in Bingen am Rhein, where Felix and Cecile kept a joint diary and so we know that it was during this time that he composed his String Quartet in E Minor, completing it on June 18, 1837.
