First recording of Jan Ladislav Dussek's string quartets with the Camesina Quartet: they lay unnoticed in libraries for 200 years, but now the Camesina Quartet has rediscovered them and recorded them for the Musikmanufaktur Berlin label. Dussek composed these string quartets in 1806, shortly before his friend and employer, Prince Louis Ferdinand of Prussia, was killed in battle at Saalfeld. "They are the best that I have written, and neither in the style of Mozart, Haydn nor Pleyel, but in the style of Dussek, and I think that they will attract some attention in the musical world.

Reissiger's string quartets follow the classical-romantic tradition as found in Mendelssohn and Schumann. Occasionally one recognises the influence of opera music, both German, influenced by Reissiger's predecessor Carl Maria von Weber, and Italian, which was very present in Dresden in Reissiger's time. There are clear echoes of Reissiger's idol Franz Schubert and of course his Leipzig colleague Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. Reissiger's music is thoroughly individual, and the combination of the most diverse influences in particular testifies to Reissiger's cosmopolitan education. Rediscovering Reissiger's music also means bringing an important piece of German music history to light.
