Beethoven was one of the featured composers in the 2010 Spannungen Festival. Works in the calibre of these, performed by world-celebrated musicians such as the Tetzlaff siblings never cease to hold the audience spellbound. Including Bach’s Contrapunctus XI in the programme gives a unique and outstanding result.

Live recordings, 12th-13th June 2010

“You're acutely aware that this is a quartet of individuals, each player highly responsive to the others...the contrast between austerity and warmth [in Op. 132] is very well conveyed here, as is the incessant propulsion of the finale...I particularly like the way [Rivinius and Pilsan] go for the finale [of the Cello Sonata], which isn't in any way brash but conveys absolutely the bold energy of Beethoven's music at this time.” Gramophone Magazine, November 2011
