about

I have always been a huge fan of the Mendelssohn Octet for double string quartet. In my search of octets on YouTube I noticed that there were a number of octets that used a double bass instead of a second cello. I thought that configuration would suit what I had in mind for my octet.

Octet for Strings is in five movements.

I. Largo
II. Allegro
III. Adagio
IV. Allegro TRIO
V. Andantino

Total duration, ca. 24 minutes.

Enjoy!!!
