Great Russian String Quartets

String Quartet No. 8 in C Minor, Op. 110

Hi, I'm Jean-Charles.
I'm a music lover, but you probably guessed that if you're here.
I am proud to be a "Ch'ti". For those who don't know, it means I come from Northern France, a land known for its values of human warmth, simplicity, and friendliness. That said, I was "adopted" by the Jura region. It was there, through the Besançon International Competition for Young Conductors, that I discovered classical music from a fascinating angle that deeply left its mark on me.
I love the diversity of music and cultures. I have a special affection for the recorder, opera, piano, zither, oboe, clarinet, trumpet, pan flute, and harmonica.
My goal here, through my reposts, is to offer you a journey through time and space.
In this regard, I want to express my immense respect for Pandora Records. Founded by Al Goldstein, this visionary label chose, after ceasing operations, to release its entire back catalog under an open license. A large part of the tracks I share here comes from this invaluable archive. Thanks to their generosity, we can rediscover these historical interpretations (often on period instruments) that might otherwise have been forgotten.
Thank you all for the talent you share here.
Wishing you great listening and happy discoveries!
