Consone Quartet - Mendelssohn: String Quartets in E Flat Major - BBC Radio 3 'Record Review'
I’ve really enjoyed the sound of their gut strings with period bows and the sometimes almost viol-like melancholy it adds to the sound in places alongside the velvety clarity of the textures and those lovingly applied expressive slides elsewhere and their instinct for speeds as well. Mendelssohn, played with a certain degree of emotional freedom.
