Sean Rafferty presents music from the Fiddlefest 2 event. Works by Mozart and Schubert and the Brodsky and Badke Quartets in Mendelssohn's Octet in E flat.
Sean Rafferty concludes a series of programmes from Fiddlefest 2, the chamber music festival recorded in 2009 at Christ Church, Londonderry in Northern Ireland. After performances of Mozart's Sonata in G, K301, and Schubert's Quartettsatz, the members of the Brodsky and Badke Quartets come together for the festival finale - a performance of Mendelssohn's Octet for strings.
