Two legendary Busch Quartet 1930s HMV recordings of Beethoven's string quartets are featured on this disc. Led by Adolf Busch and acclaimed as perhaps the finest interpreters of the composer's work in that idiom, their recordings of the Quartet in C major no.3 'Rasumovsky' and the Quartet in C sharp minor no.14 leave the listener in no doubt as to why they enjoy such exalted status among chamber music groups of their era.
Quartet in C major op.59 no.3 "Rasumovsky"

Quartet in C sharp minor op.131 no.14
