INSIGHT: Mendelssohn’s sextet for violin, two violas, cello, bass and piano is often overshadowed by his String Octet, which was completed one year after the sextet. Though the sextet shows signs of being a somewhat simpler composition, the brilliant piano part suggests Mendelssohn wanted to show off his own skills at the keyboard.
