Aug 1, 2025 | Wencke Wallbaum | News Another award for current Mandelring Quartett release

Our current July release Dvořák: String Quartet, Op. 96, String Quintet, Op. 97 & Humoresques, Op. 101 with the Mandelring Quartett has been awarded a KLANG TIPP by Audio / Stereoplay.

Reviewer Andreas Fritz writes: "With irrepressible joy in playing and a marvellous richness of colour, the American stylistic elements are brought brilliantly to life. This warmly and clearly recorded CD also offers a fantastic premiere: the eight Piano Humoresques, Op. 101, in an arrangement for string quartet. Chamber music at its best." 

We are very happy about this appreciation of expert music critics!

Jul 7, 2025 | Wencke Wallbaum | News SUPERSONIC for Mandelring Quartett

Our current July release Dvořák: String Quartet, Op. 96, String Quintet, Op. 97 & Humoresques, Op. 101 with the Mandelring Quartett has been awarded a SUPERSONIC by the Luxembourg trade magazine Pizzicato.

Reviewer Uwe Krusch writes: "[...] the music is performed with noble affection and a refined approach. In this way, the works gain in refinement and elegance compared to the interpretations that also emphasize hearty or dance-like aspects. This gives the pieces an emphatic, less intrusive narrative line that is extremely beneficial to them." 

We are very happy about this appreciation of expert music critics!
