About
Gade’s chamber music accounts for four of the total of almost forty volumes forming the complete edition of his works. Gade composed his Sextet in two versions. The first movement apparently presented him with considerably greater difficulties, and in the end he decided to replace it with a completely new composition. His first version is also heard on this CD, interpreted by the successful MidtVest Danish ensemble.
