On their second Boccherini album, the Karski Quartet and cellist Raphaël Feye present four string quintets once again, including two world premieres. These pieces, composed for the unusual combination of two cellos, showcase Boccherini's versatility and move from Mediterranean warmth to the elegance of Viennese classicism. The album successfully combines historical awareness with contemporary depth and offers a refined and compelling portrait of the composer.
