Decca, 1997
Ute, Ute, what would we do without you (and these songs)?
This album is absolutely to DIE for! These songs, as everyone knows, are still very effective today, so it is schocking to think that they were first written in the 1920s and `30s. But when you are supressed (like the Germans were during this time) things come ...
Schubert: Trout Quintet, Death and the Maiden / Budapest Qt et al

Sony, 1991
This CD contains the best Trout I know but by far!
You can find best versions of the Death and the Maiden . I mean , this performance is good but I recommend for instance two powerful and unforgettable versions . The first of one is from the fifties with the Konzerthaus of Vienna (I got the whole quartets set) and the ...

More quintessential Beethoven string quartets!!!
I also concur with the honors piled on these legendary performances. These recordings of Op. 59, No.3, Op. 74 & Op. 133 are pure perfection, with a fiery intensity and a old world enchantment. Sure there is the occasional intonation slip up, but I find it rather ...

Supreme Beethoven.
The Budapest quartet was at its peak in the 1940's, when Sasha Schneider was its full-time second violinist. Their sound was warm, precise, and broadly swinging (listen to the opening of Opus 18, no. 4, for a taste of what I mean). The Guarneri, the Clevland, the ...
Beethoven: String Quartets Op. 59, Nos. 1 & 2
Ludwig van Beethoven
Sony, 1991
If you don't know the Quartets, you don't know Beethoven!
Beethoven is known, of course, most widely for his symphonies, and then his concerti and sonatas. But he also wrote what is arguably the greatest body of chamber music on the planet, and that's saying a lot, with competition like Haydn and Mozart. But no other ...

"There is a difference between the chaste sensuality of Mozart or Haydn and the lascivious sensuality of Richard Strauss. One cannot pour chocolate sauce over asparagus." George Szell Sony's Original Jackets series continues with this release of the music of ...

Sony, 1990
The best recordings I've ever heard of the Brandeburg
I love Bach, and I particularly love the Brandeburg Concertos, and I've never heard a recording of them as good as this one. The sound quality is also first rate. Even if you already own a recording of the Brandenburg Concertos you owe it to yourself to buy this one.

Bridge, 1996
The playing is excellent, but with sound issues
The Beethoven Quintet and the Gypsy Trio are excellent, both in artistry and in sound. The two Haydn quartets, however, are marred by sudden bursts of crackling static. This is quite unfortunate, because without the sound imperfections, this would easily be a 5 star ...

Chamber Music at its Best
It is my personal opinion that chamber works of Mozart are the best. Any instrumental works for chamber from piano, flute, oboe to strings, Mozart's chamber works are exemplary. They represent the Classical Era with its emphasis on elegance of orchestration, warmth ...

Audio quality is amazingly good!
These are from 78s, but they sound great! Don't let the oldness of the recordings put you off.
