Olli Mustonen's chamber music collection! Olli Mustonen, a musician who says he was greatly influenced by Beethoven and Bartók! The string quartets he considers important for composers are included! Olli Mustonen is active as a pianist, conductor, and composer, and his frequent visits to Japan (he is scheduled to visit Japan again as a pianist in October 2022) have made him a familiar name among classical music fans in Japan. Mustonen has said that \"the string quartet seems to be the most important and meaningful work for many composers,\" and that he was greatly influenced by Beethoven and Bartók in his own compositions. He says that he was greatly influenced by Beethoven and Bartók in his own compositions, not only as a musician, but also as a human being. Mustonen's string quartet overcomes many difficulties and goes \"from darkness to light\" to reach its finale. The first movement of the Piano Quintet is a dramatic and passionate composition that he describes as similar to Mustonen's Symphony No. 2 \"Johannes Angelos\" (inspired by a historical novel). The second movement consists of a collection of variations similar to a passacaglia, with material from the second movement used in the final movement while playing something like a fragment of a hymn, leading to the finale.The Engegård Quartet was founded in 2006 by Arvid Engegård, a Norwegian virtuoso who was the concertmaster of the Mozarteum Camerata Academica (now Camerata Salzburg) led by Schandor Weg. He has released a collection of Mozart's string quartets (LWC1219) on the LAWO label.
