About

Also available - 8 Guarneri reissues appearing for the first time on CD!


"...few performing groups can bring as much sheer musicality and communicativeness to the music at hand. Even at this latter stage of their performing life, the Guarneri still bring a quality of artistry and musicianship that other quartets can only envy.

Consider...the Second String Quartet of Hungarian composer Zoltan Kodaly. It's an early work (written in 1918) that nimbly blends modern sonorities with traditional folk-dance melodies and rhythms. No doubt, only a handful in attendance had heard it before. The Guarneri immersed themselves in the music, crafting a performance that left a favorable impression of the music (rather than draw attention to themselves)."
