With it's new Dvorak recording, the Merel Quartet presents a vivid and insightful portrait of a composer who remains one of music's great humanists. Antonin Dvorak's chamber works combine direct melodic appeal, harmonic ingenuity, and an unmistakable warmth that speaks across generations. This album brings together key works from his late creative period, complemented by two rare gems in compelling arrangements for string quartet. Mary Ellen Woodside and Edouard Matzener (violins), Alessandro D'Amico, and Rafael Rosenfeld have long been central figures in the Swiss and international chamber music landscape. Their Dvooak interpretations are marked by refined timbre, structural insight, and an ensemble cohesion grounded in deep musical rapport.
