Description:

Two Bruckner Chamber Works Performed by the Altomonte EnsembleAlthough most of Bruckner's works are symphonies, a small number of his chamber and religious works are also excellent. The String Quintet, written around the same time as the Fifth and Sixth Symphonies, was proposed by Josef Hermesberger, a renowned Viennese violinist. Although it is small in size, it has a style and atmosphere that is uniquely Brucknerian. On the other hand, the String Quartet of 1862 is a study. Rémi Barrault is also a conductor of note. He is an outstanding violinist who originally studied under Gerard Poullet at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique in Paris, and also under the tutelage of Ivry Gitlis. He continues to play in numerous chamber music ensembles.
