Mozart - String Quartets Nos. 20 & 21

Mozart:

String Quartet No. 20 in D major, K499 'Hoffmeister'

String Quartet No. 21 in D major, K575 'Prussian No. 1'

Klenke Quartett

The Klenke Quartet is one of the leading German Ladies’ Quartets of today, and the individual volumes have been highly recommended by critics all over the world. Their sound is fresh and critics admire them for their ability to combine musical intelligence with expressive intensity and fine nuances of colour with a wonderful feeling for atmosphere.

“The all-female, Weimar-trained Klenke Quartett, an unusually homogeneous ensemble, play [the quartets] with delicacy and brio, though a slightly broader tempo for K499’s adagio might have made more of the sublime passage leading to the reprise.” Sunday Times, 11th May 2008 ***

Skampa Quartet

‘The quartet’s dynamic approach was breathtaking. The beauty of their playing stems from deep musical intelligence’ (The Independent)

“Smetana's pain-wracked D minor Quartet is here give the wiry intensity and urgency it obviously demands but too rarely receives, taken to the point of roughness but never pushed over the edge.” Gramophone Magazine, Janurary 2008

“…Mozart's final Quartet is not exactly the easiest of openers. Yet the Škampa Quartet delivers a beautifully natural and effortless account, revelling in the subtleties of contrapuntal interplay so characteristic of Mozart's last works. In Smetana's intense Second Quartet, the Škampa are particularly compelling... The second movement Polka is a notable highlight, projected with a really bold swagger.” BBC Music Magazine, January 2008 *****
