During the nineteenth century Johannes Verhulst was the most influential musician in the Netherlands. He enjoyed international esteem and as a conductor initiated the Bach renaissance in Holland. The great Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy himself took the talented composer under his wing and invited him to study in Leipzig. The Utrecht String Quartet is now presenting Verhulst’s first two string quartets on a new CD in what once again qualifies as a top-quality contribution to the repertoire.
