Quartetto Italiano

Description:

When the Italian String Quartet first visited the United States in 1951, composer Virgil Thomson exclaimed, "The only word that can describe this performance is 'perfect. Without a doubt, the best string quartet we know today,' he enthused. The members of the quartet [Paolo Borciani (violin), Elisa Pegrefi (violin), Lionello Forzanti (viola), Franco Rossi (cello)], who met while studying in Siena, performed as Nuovo Quartetto Italiano in 1945 at In March 1946, they recorded their first 78 rpm recordings. In 1947 and 1948, the quartet toured Austria, England, Spain, France, Germany, and the Netherlands, and the French critic Bernard Gavoti wrote, "The Nuovo Quartet Italiano was Nuovo Quartet Italiano made a sensational debut in Paris. It is not too strong and transparent, but at the same time it has an aggressive feel.At the Salzburg Festival in 1949, their performance of the Brahms Piano Quintet with Furtwängler's piano was a sensation. In 1951, they became well-known enough to drop the "Nuovo" from their name and became the "Italian String Quartet". They continued to captivate audiences around the world with their groundbreaking interpretations of beauty, insight, and graceful construction of music, and became a living legend, touring the world for nearly 40 years until they disbanded in 1980, winning more acclaim. Their studio recordings were made in 1946 by Durium Telefunken (Warner), 1947-1953 by Decca (Universal), 1953-1959 by Columbia (Warner), and 1960-1980 by Philips & DG (Universal). As with five centuries of Italian music and works by Debussy, Ravel, Milhaud, Milhaud, Prokofiev and Stravinsky, this is an important repertoire from Australia and Germany, and its exquisite mastery is evident. The collection is a collection of original masters, with a few exceptions. This collection has been remastered from the original masters with a few exceptions and includes many recordings appearing on CD for the first time. Warner Music Japan
