Wonderful !

(5 out of 5 stars)

"It's a real shame that this recording is not more readily available. This may be the best recording ever of Op. 18. The Turners are a HIP quartet, playing on original instruments, and they do for Beethoven's early masterpiece what the Festetics and Mosaiques quartets have done for Haydn - they bring the music gloriously to life."
