'For the Quartet, this music is enormously refreshing. There is no other composer that can channel the inner, youthful soul in all of us as well as Felix Mendelssohn. In his hands music can be pure joy and can capture the spirit of life with such an irresistible energy, that one cannot help but share it with others. Daniel Chong
