Verus String Quartet – Beethoven: String Quartets Nos.3 & 9 – Japan CD

Description

:

The Welsh String Quartet’s third Beethoven cycle has been a great success! The second collection, which includes No. 16 and No. 8, was praised for its “clear sound and mature, exquisite playing that vividly depicts the contrast between the two different styles. The third collection includes Beethoven’s first string quartet, No. 3, and No. 9, the brightest and most powerful of the Rasumovsky set. An interesting coupling of two works with the common feature of starting on the seventh degree pitch. (C)RS
