Beethoven String Quartets 9 & 10, Amadeus
It is wonderful that Decca and Eloquence together keep great musical genius alive and available for a new generation of listeners. The renowned Amadeus String Quartet disbanded in 1987 when their violist, Peter Schidlof passed away, but their final recordings live on in this re-release of the ‘Razumovsky’ String Quartet No 9 and the ‘Harp’ String Quartet No 10 of Beethoven. As can be imagined, these are musically strong and mature performances with the four performers working seamlessly together.
