Endellion String Quartet

[ Warner Classics / CD ]

Release Date: Monday 5 November 2012

"This sample of Hadyn quartets includes supreme examples of his quartet oevre, ranging from an early example of his most mature quartet-writing to his very last notes as a quartet composer - or indeed as a composer." - David Waterman, Endellion String Quartet

"The recorded sound...has the fullness and realism of a live performance. The Endellion String Quartet respond to these scores with an equally full-toned generosity, though they fine down their vibratos to a remote purity for the wonderful Adagio affetuoso" (BBC Music Magazine, June 2013)

"the Endellion's playing is nearly always beyond reproach, and this contrasting array of Haydn's quartet styles and personalities is no exception. They bring out with very simply clarity all of Haydn's humour." (Gramophone, March 2013)
