About
The vast experience of the Belcea Quartet and their guests made the concert a rewarding event. In a most gratifying way, these four musicians, despite their diverse backgrounds (they are from three different countries) presented a unified sound and well-formed understanding of the String Sextet no.1 in B flat major, op.18. Their technique was as impeccable as the balance between the four instruments. In the Sextet no.1, Zimmermann took the first viola part and Queyras the second cello part, while in the String Sextet no.2 in G major, Zimmermann played second viola and Queyras first cello. This proved significant: when taking the second part in their respective instruments, the guest artists blended completely into the musical texture, playing often even more in the background than the other musicians with non-thematic material.
