Shostakovich: The String Quartets

While his symphonies were subjected to scrutiny and censure by the suffocating Soviet government, the string quartets were chamber pieces into which he felt free to pour all his sadness, anger and boldest musical ideas. They are some of the most passionate, deeply affecting works in the classical canon, and these Emerson Quartet performances have won universal acclaim for their virtuosity and emotional power. Includes all 15 quartets on 5 CDs.

Shostakovich: Piano Quintet, String Quartet No.2

It is hard to envisage a more enticing prospect: Shostakovich's densely woven String Quartet No.2 and his deceptively backward-looking Piano Quintet, performed by the stellar Takacs Quartet and Marc-Andre Hamelin, generously notated by David Fanning, and lovingly recorded by Hyperion's Simon Eadon and Andrew Keener team. Seventy minutes of post-Revolutionary Russian ecstasy.

For this new Alpha release the ensemble has chosen two works by one of the leading composers of twentieth-century chamber music, Dmitri Shostakovich.
