Program notes
The Quatuor Mona, founded in 2018 in Paris, was born from the meeting of four young female musicians from three different continents, united by the collective goal of developing the timeless art of the string quartet while encouraging diversity, inclusion, and links between arts and different cultures. At this magnificent and intimate concert in the third edition of the Festival Singer-Polignac, they perform Ravel’s gorgeous string quartet and Mendelssohn’s poignant Op. 80, composed after the death of his sister, Fanny Mendelssohn.
