TOP OF MY LIST

Michael Capizzi | Illinois, USA | 06/25/2010

(5 out of 5 stars)

"These recordings sre not my best Haydn string quartet recordings. I write this in the manner that people used to say that Soiphia Loren was not a beautiful woman. There are enough flaws inidividually to damn the set, but taken together, eerything works.

I have on conveniently packaged CDs most of Haydn's mature string quartets, played by a world class quartet at the top of their form. Their only flaw is that they are too fluid and too polished to present Haydn's work in the manner it should be. But then again this is Haydn and the equation here is very simple: HAYDN + WORLD CLASS PLAYERS = GREAT MUSIC. It usually works and it does so brilliantly on these 10 CDs. Buy the set and put it right next to yout CD player. It will never stray far from it. Highly recommended."
