Best Haydn String Quartets - April 2024

Haydn: The String Quartets (7CD)

“One has never heard them surpassed, and rarely equalled,” wrote The Times of Belgium’s Pro Arte Quartet in 1925. The ensemble’s pioneering project to record the complete Haydn quartets was interrupted by World War II, but their interpretations of the composer’s music were destined for immortality. As Gramophone wrote in 1936: “The Pro Arte people have that awareness which is one of the prerogatives of the true artist ... The variety of expression is wonderful and the recording as perfect as one could wish.” These recordings have now been remastered in 24BIT-96kHz digital sound.

Haydn: String Quartets Op. 76, Nos. 1 - 3

With his late string quartets, Haydn's mastery of convention had grown to the point where his imagination was utterly unfettered, illustrating Robert Frost's famous dictum that "freedom is working easy in harness." On these 1987 and 1988 recordings, the Takacs Quartet, a flamboyant ensemble founded in 1975, plays the six Opus 76 essays in that spirit. Their highly profiled accounts possess exceptional expressive intensity but are always in good taste. Fittingly, these more public expressions of Haydn's genius have been captured in reverberant spaces--the Schubertsaal of Vienna's Konzerthaus fo... [Read More]

Haydn: String Quartets, Op. 76

These quartets, Haydn's last great quartet collection, represent a peak of musical achievement that may have been equaled, but has never been surpassed. Haydn invented the string quartet way back in the 1750s, and by the time he came to write these works some 40 years later, his mastery was so natural and effortless that it's hardly noticeable. All you hear are the great tunes, dramatic surprises, fresh rhythms, and ever-new string textures. These immaculate performances by the Tokyo Quartet went a long way toward establishing it as one of the most exciting young string quartets to emerge in t... [Read More]

There is an unexplored world of music for the string quartet that is perfectly suited as encore pieces. Whether they are movements from complete string quartets or independent pieces, there is much beautiful music worth exploring in this genre.Franz Joseph Haydn has been called the father of the string quartet, so it's fitting that the program opens with the charming Andante from his Quartet in F, Op. 3 no. 5. A more energetic side of the composer is also presented with the bouncy Rondo from his Quartet in C, Op. 33 no. 3. One composer not usually associated with chamber music is Giacomo Puccini. His 'Crisantemi' is an elegiac study in honor of the Duke of Savoy. The piece is eminently moving and beautifully performed by the Delmￃﾩ Quartet. Eastern European music is well represented with memorable quartet movements by Tchaikovsky, Borodin, Dvorak and Suk. Because of its breadth of repertoire, this is a perfect recording for chamber music neophytes and veterans alike.
