Amsterdam Sinfonietta- Bartok: Divertimento; Brahms: String Quintet No.2 (CD)
Brahms and Bartók are among Candida Thompson's favorite composers. They were both known for their love of folk music, and often used it as a source of creative inspiration. For this program, Amsterdam Sinfonietta have once again paired a work written for string orchestra with an arrangement of a work composed for chamber ensemble. Bartók's Divertimento for String Orchestra is an exceptionally original work. Brahms's String Quintet No.2 is not often performed by a full string orchestra. In this guise, it's rich textures seem even more glorious.
