Quatuor Terpsycordes - Schubert: Quartettsatz, D. 703 & Quatuor No. 15, D. 887 (2015) [Hi-Res]

'this new version sits convincingly alongside the Belcea and the Takacs in terms of formidable modern-day recordings ... There s plenty to admire...not least an airiness of texture and some wonderfully characterful viola-playing.' --Harriet Smith Gramophone, November 2015

MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL RECORDING OF THE MONTH 'If you want to hear these Schubert string quartets on period instruments, Quatuor Terpsycordes here offer you this surprisingly rare opportunity. This brings a rawness and febrile quality to the Quartettsatz ... Played on period instruments the Terpsycordes account is harmonically more pungent and in line more modern, more twentieth century. Their entire performance is a revelation.' --Michael Greenhalgh MusicWeb International, November 2015
