★★★★ “Led by Artistic Director Skye McIntosh, the Ensemble were in sparkling form… Greco was the star of the show…” – Limelight

This rare and beautiful concert features some of Schubert’s most darkly-hued songs, superbly delivered by David Greco’s mahogany bass-baritone, and intensified by rich and expressive string quartet movements by Mendelssohn.  

These beautiful gems date from the last tragic six months of Mendelssohn’s life, in which he battled both illness and bitter mourning for his sister Fanny. 

Go on this wild and sad journey; when you come up for air, you’ll never feel more alive. 

  • David Greco, baritone

  • Skye McIntosh, violin 

  • Matthew Greco, violin 

  • Karina Schmitz, viola 

  • Daniel Yeadon, cello
