Artists
Pavão Quartet, string quartet

Description
Since their critically acclaimed South Bank debut in 2003, The Pavăo Quartet has rapidly established itself as one of the foremost young string quartets in the UK. Regulars on TV shows such as 'Parkinson', 'This Morning' and 'Top of the Pops', the Pavăos are also regular collaborators with artists such as Katie Melua, Charlotte Church and Pavarotti.

Recording this album has given the Pavăos a chance to fully explore a special musical era. They started playing these arrangements by Carlo Martelli as encores at their recitals, but very soon realised they deserved a stage of their own.
