 This
recording represents the North American debut of the
Franz Schubert Quartet.
Acknowledged as one of Europe's finest
ensembles, the Quartet established its reputation in the
United States with this recording.
Recorded in Vienna by the legendary
Michael Kornhäusl and carefully annotated by Douglas
Briscoe, GM Recordings is proud to present Franz
Schubert's String Quartet Number 15 in D (D
887), a treat — both in performance and recording
quality — for string quartet cognoscenti and
general classical music lovers alike. |
"A
wonderful surprise: the Schubert Quartet in a
passionate, intense performance of Schubert's G Major
Quintet."
—Die Presse
(Vienna)
"The Viennese players
... are intent, above all, on projecting the lyrical
elements — and they do so with an extraordinary
refinement of tone."
—Los Angeles Times
