Gil Shaham and the Sejong Soloists' association extends back many years. Gil says performing the Mendelssohn Octet with Sejong is 'like playing basketball with seven Michael Jordans as each musician is a staggering soloist in their own right'. Sejong is renowned for its cohesiveness and refreshing musical style and under Gil Shaham's direction give this repertoire a sense of real intimacy, creating a magical intensity and sense of engagement.

Mendelssohn: Octet for strings in E flat major, Op. 20
"There are some breathtaking pianissimos and beguiling touches ofportamento in what is a most likeable performance, building cumulatively to a chattering contrapuntal finale that demonstrates these players' admirable abilities individually and in ensemble"
