Mercedes’ top picks since 2019!
“I chose that repertoire because I have such a beautiful memory of the quartet’s first concert. Diego was five years old at the time, and he would sing the violin part from the second movement. From that moment on, it became one of my favorite quartets. Even now, whenever I listen to it or perform it, I can always hear Diego’s little voice singing the violin part in my head.
Prokofiev is a piece full of energy. I really enjoy the richness and variety of articulations, and in the last movement, the violin part is never boring.”
