Beethoven’s strijkkwartetten
Early Quartets
‘a historical document of the first magnitude’.
(Sonograma Spain, 2024)
‘the Narratio Quartet’s point of view on Beethoven’s timeless masterpieces is not just a thoroughly researched one, but a compellingly convincing one, too’
(Fanfare USA, 2024)
‘Stunning! This opening volume of a planned complete cycle of Beethoven’s String Quartets is utterly marvelous and special. The Narratio Quartet’s interpretation of this music is a remarkably fresh and energizing, delivering performances that will surprise, enchant and intrigue’.
(Positive Feedback, 2025)
‘Doubtless most readers have their own favourite interpreters of these quartets, but for their ability to make strong declamatory statements alongside more lyrical pronouncements these performances are a special case that should be investigated by all who think they know them’. (Early Music Review, 2025)
Nomination ‘Preis der Deutsche Schallplatten Kritik’ (January 2025)
‘When it comes to shaping the sentences of this Molto adagio (which almost resonates like a hymn), the Narratio Quartet feels perfectly at home. 5 stars’. (Ritmo, 2025)
