The fact that the decidedly attractive chamber grouping of guitar and string quartet is so seldom heard has prompted the Minguet Quartet and the guitarist Friedemann Wuttke to occupy themselves intensively with it. This is the first CD in a series which will be devoted to original works and arrangements for guitar and string quartet.
The combination of string quartet and guitar brings together different approaches to the repertoire. The guitar profits from the abundance of quartet literature and contributes its own Spanish, Impressionist character.
