\n

The Emerson String Quartet’s long cherished dream to record\ntheir favorite Dvorák string quartets is realized with their\ntenderhearted and infatuated readings of the Czech genius’s middle\nand late quartets

\n

A bonanza of romantic melody, not a note on this 3-CD release\nhas ever before been recorded by the Emersons.

\n

Dvorák’s youthful and infrequently performed song cycle on the\nsubject of love, Cypresses, provides a compelling thematic trove\nfor several of these enamoring quartets.

\n

Dvorák’s quintet reveals most of all the heart of Dvoøák’s\nmusical nature, both its Bohemian roots and the bracingly fresh air\nof his Iowa summer experience. He later explained, “I should never\nhave written … ‘just so’ if I hadn’t seen America.”
