Beethoven — Emerson String Quartet

The String Quartets

Deutsche Grammophon

Now in middle age, the Emerson String Quartet consolidated its steady artistic gains with this set of Beethoven's monumental quartets. Performances stick close to the composer's brisk metronome markings with astonishing technical virtuosity and depth of insight.
