Live from London's Wigmore Hall: the Elias String Quartet play Haydn and Mendelssohn.
Named after Mendelssohn's oratorio, Elijah, the Elias Quartet promises to give a deeply penetrating performance of Mendelssohn's hommage to Beethoven.
Although written when he was still a teenager, the A minor quartet is a work of astonishing maturity, revealing his fascination for the late quartets of Beethoven which so perplexed his contemporaries, not least Mendelssohn's own father.
