Tchaikovsky: String Sextet in D minor "Souvenir de Florence", Op. 70 (arranged for String Orchestra)

This (sextet version) is firmly planted in my TOP 5 list of favourite pieces. I'm not familiar with this performance/recording, but I'm certain the music speaks for itself.

A great composition indeed. The performance is superb and the sound quality of the recording awesome!

I heard a spectacular Beethoven 4 (Berlin/Rattle) on the radio in my car the other day and it inspired me to give it a listen here at home, too.

First time I'm hearing this one and it's fantastic.
