MARBECKS COLLECTABLE; Prokofiev:Hindemith/Walton: String Quartets

"Although many accounts of the Prokofiev have appeared over the years, none has approached, let alone surpassed, the Hollywood version of the Second Quartet. The same would no doubt apply to the Hindemith but for the fact that there have been fewer challengers. What a wonderful feeling for line these players had, what an incredible, perfectly matched and blended ensemble - and how well these transfers sound! That goes for the Walton, too: there's no other account of it that makes so positive a case for it." Gramophone
