On this second disc of the Emperor Quartet's survey of Britten's music for string quartet, Alla marcia appears as an interlude between the first and the last of Britten's three published string quartets.

The first disc in this series of three was released in 2010, and included a performance of the Second String Quartet described as 'stupendous' in Classic FM Magazine and 'magnificent' in Scherzo, while the reviewer in Fono Forum likened it to 'an entire cosmos of colours and nuances'.
