Beethoven (1770-1827) - String Quartet No.13 (Great Fugue Ver): Talich Quartet - Import CD

Credits:

Orchestre De La Suisse Ro

Description:

The Tarich String Quartet was the first to bring the great Bohemian tradition to the recording stage. Their keen musical vision in tackling Beethoven's various stylistic experiments, their impeccable musicianship, their innate sense of improvisation, and especially their extreme dramatic depth of reading of the score, are ever sensational. (from a review at the time) Formed in 1964 by violinist Jan Tarich. Jan Thalich is the nephew of conductor Václav Thalich, who was the chief conductor of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra from 1919-39. King International
