Major A momentous occasion! Following our tradition of exploring
cycles of music in context, we present a cornerstone of classical
music and one of humanity's greatest achievements. Takács violinist
Edward Dusinberre on the Beethoven Quartets: "Playing the works is a
thrilling and daunting experience. We feel like tennis players forced
out of position, obliged to draw on our physical and mental resources
to raise our game. We have rehearsed this music for many years, but
performing a Beethoven quartet still inspires an exhilarating sense of
danger" (The Guardian, London). Critic Alex Ross on the musicians:
"The Takács players have been recording the complete Beethoven
quartets, and their survey, now complete, stands as the most richly
expressive modern account of this titanic cycle" (The New Yorker).
