After a highly acclaimed series of Brahms chamber music releases for ONYX, the Nash Ensemble turn their attention to 19th-century Russian repertoire.
Glazunov's superbly crafted String Quintet in A of 1891 is coupled with Arensky's Second Quartet with two cellos and Borodin's unfinished Sextet for strings in D minor. The latter was written, according to the composer, in Mendelssohnian style 'to please the Germans' while he was in Heidelberg.
