EMERSON STRING QUARTET – A BIOGRAPHICAL TIMELINE

“Technically speaking the Emerson String Quartet are unimpeachable, with meticulous internal balance and intonation sustained at all times, remarkable tonal matching between the instruments and precision phrasing and dynamics. There is a beguiling transparency about their sound-world that allows every voice to register with the kind of resonance-free… Read more in Amazon's Emerson String Quartet Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Crisp and commanding!, May 26, 2006

quisten8 "quisten" (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mozart: String quartets K. 465 "Dissonance", K. 458 "The Hunt" & K. 421 (Audio CD)

Bravo! An inspired performance of brilliant works can leave you breathless. This is one. Spirited, masterful, and exceptionally well balanced, this excellent recording reflects the passion of musician and engineer alike. Remember, too, that many great recordings of these quartets exist: To truly appreciate the classics it is essential to listen to interpretations by various artists.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, original, and insightful playing from one of today's finest chamber ensembles, January 3, 2007

(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Mozart: String quartets K. 465 "Dissonance", K. 458 "The Hunt" & K. 421 (Audio CD)

The Emerson String Quartet does not disappoint with its contributions to the classical period of string quartets. These well-known works sound entirely fresh, while remaining stylistically delightful. This disc is wonderful from start to finish.

5.0 out of 5 stars A magnificent CD, December 4, 2007

Alojz Kajinic (Carnegie, PA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Mozart: String quartets K. 465 "Dissonance", K. 458 "The Hunt" & K. 421 (Audio CD)

These three string quartets are some of the most beautiful pieces of classical chamber music ever written. They are densely filled with emotions, including deep sadness, angst, and happiness.

String Quartet in C Major (K. 465) is one of my absolute favorites. Its angst-ridden adagio introduction at the beginning of the first movement coupled with the subsequent transition into the brightness of C major is especially beautiful.

The Emerson String Quartet did a magnificent job with this CD.
