Album Description
"[The Henschel Quartet's] playing is fresh, thoughtful and involving. The famous variations are vividly characterized, and the Scherzo's waltz trio has rarely danced so gracefully. The teenage quartet in E flat, D87, with its delightful braying Scherzo, makes a welcome bonus. A true bargain, knocking spots off the Kodaly's dutiful account of the Death and the Maiden on Naxos." - GramophoneThis release includes the most famous of all Schubert's string quartets, "Death and the Maiden."The Henschel Quartet has not only received the highest praise for its concert appearances, but the ensemble's recordings have likewise received reviews nothing short of euphoric and have been awarded a number of top prizes. The quartet performs regularly in prestigious chamber music cycles worldwide and is a guest at numerous renowned music festivals. For Arte Nova they have also recorded the complete Mendelssohn string quartets, and quartets by Beethoven and Alberto Ginastera.
