Donizetti / Strazzullo / Mitja Quartet - V2: String Quartets [CD]

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 it's 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. The Mitja Quartet was founded in 2008 by four musicians from Naples, Cosenza, Potenza and La Serena (Chile). The ensemble was formed in the most prestigious academies in Europe (the Fiesole Music School, the European Academy of the Quartet of Florence, the W. Stauffer Academy of Cremona, the Pro Quartet Academy of Paris, the Jeunesse Musicale Deutschland of Weikersheim, the International Piano Academy Incontri col Maestro di Imola), studying with internationally renowned musicians and ensembles, such as the Artemis Quartet, the Alban Berg Quartet, the Casals Quartet, the Kuss Quartet, the Cremona Quartet, Antonello Farulli, Andrea Nannoni and Alfred Brendel.
