Haas & Janácek - String Quartets

Haas, P:

String Quartet No. 1 in C sharp minor, Op. 3 (1920)

String Quartet No. 3, Op. 15 (1940–41)

Janacek:

String Quartet No. 1 'The Kreutzer Sonata'

Pavel Haas Quartet

“the PHQ’s streamlined but full-blooded playing is more than welcome, and if they are lining up the first Janácek and the first and third Haas for a follow-up CD,I will be at the front of the queue to hear it” Gramophone Magazine

“Haas was destined for Auschwitz (where he was killed in 1944) and although it would be fanciful to read prophecy into the pages of this marvellous and varied work, [the 3rd String Quartet] the candour and emotional unrest that it expresses have inevitable associations. In the hands of the Pavel Haas Quartet Janácek's own powerfully emotive First Quartet positively glows... This is a superb release...” Gramophone Magazine, April 2008
