CD Reviews

Superb!

Scott E. Peterman | Oneida, NY USA | 04/24/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I picked up this set of Mozart's most famous string quartets a few years ago for a very low price, and to my great surprise, found them to be arguably the best set of performances of these pieces now currently available. They are ADD recordings made back in the early 70's. The Suske Quartet consisted of members of the Berlin Staatskapelle, but disbanded in the late 70's. This set used to sell for a discount price and is now very difficult to find. If you find it, don't hesitate to snap it up.

The Suske Quartet's performances of the Beethoven string quartets are also worth acquiring, and they are also rather cheap if you can find them."

Fabulous, very nice one

"A must one for Mozart quartet lovers.

Comparison to Melos quarter, it is more clear shape, but melos' have a little bit more warm."
