Mozart: Prussian Quartets

Debut recording for SONY from one of the world’s greatest string quartets.

The Emerson String Quartet stands alone in the history of string quartets as musicians of unrivalled eminence with an incomparable list of great recordings over three decades.

For its debut on Sony Classical, the Quartet has selected Mozart’s last three string quartets, the “Prussian” quartets. Having recorded Mozart's six "Haydn Quartets" as well as the flute quartets, the Emersons have long desired to add more Mozart to their discography. This new album sees them recording Mozart quartets for the first time in 20 years.

String Quartet No. 21 in D major, K575 'Prussian No. 1'
String Quartet No. 22 in B flat major, K589 'Prussian No. 2'
