The Danish String Quartet Presents One Of Beethoven's Late String Quartets In The Context Of A Related Fugue By J.S. Bach As Well As A Linked Masterwork From The Quartet Literature
For its third ECM release, the prize-winning Danish String Quartet inaugurates a series of five albums with the overarching title of Prism, in which the group will present one of Beethoven's late string quartets in the context of a related fugue by J.S. Bach as well as a linked masterwork from the quartet literature.
With Prism 1, it's the first of Beethoven's late quartets, op. 127 in E-flat Major, alongside Bach's fugue in the same key (arranged by Mozart) and Dmitri Shostakovich's final string quartet, the No. 15 in E-flat minor.
"There is probably no string quartet that I would rather hear play Beethoven at the moment than this foursome of three young Danes and their Norwegian cellist, who demonstrate unrivalled intensity, freedom in their playing and remarkable feel for the composer" - David Allen, New York Times
