Title: Bartok & Dohnanyi: Piano Quintets Artist: Zemlinsky Quartet Label: Evil Penguin Records Product Type: COMPACT DISCS UPC: 608917725025 Genre: Classical Artists Release Date: 2024-06-28 Number of Discs: 1
First time collaboration between the Zemlinsky Quartet and Paolo Giacometti. A must for anyone interested in the great tradition of Mitteleuropa chamber music. A unique coupling of two beautiful works rarely recorded and underrated by discography. The two Quintets were composed within a ten year span (1904-1914), a period of fantastic musical flourishing. Zemlinsky Quartet belongs to the glorious tradition of Centre-European string quartets, characterized by nobility and spontaneity of expression, flawless technique, lack of mannersisms, profound and humble insight of the score.
