 Czech String Quartets za 164.23 zł Cena: 164.23 zł This extensive collection brings together the complete string quartets of Czech composers Antonín Dvorák, Bedrich Smetana, Leoš Janácek and Bohuslav Martinu.Those by Dvorák chart the evolution of his style, from his interest in Wagnerian music in the years prior to 1870 -- String Quartet in D major -- to the folk-infused works of his later life, such as the String Quartet in G major Op.106, and show the influence of his time in the United States, with the String Quartet in F Op.96 'American'. The quartets of Smetana have a distinctive neo-classical flavour while those of Janácek show strong links to his operatic works. Prolific composer Bohuslav Martinu composed six quartets, of which two were mislaid during the war. One of these, his fifth string quartet, is widely considered to be one of the most pivotal works in the composer's oeuvre, written in 1938, a year of much upheaval in Martinu's life. Many of the quartets in the collection hold an emotional dimension, all of which are exquisitely brought to life by the Stamitz Quartet.Established in 1985, the Stamitz Quartet quickly became known as leading interpreters of Czech repertory. Winners of the 1986 National Broadcasting Union Competition in Salzburg, the Quartet's rise to fame was meteoric; they have since participated in tours throughout Europe and America and undertaken a variety of recording projects, of which this collection is one.Other information:- Recorded between 1987 and 1993.- For the first time together in one collection: the complete string quartets of Dvorak, Smetana, Janacek and Martinu!- Though differing stylistically (Dvorak highly romantic and melodious, Smetana classical but deeply personal ("From My Life"), Janacek intimately speaking about love and tenderness, Martinu vibrant, colourful and exuberant), they share their Bohemian roots in a common heartfelt passion and love for the folklore of their country.- Excellent performances by the Stamitz Quartet, "natives" with the same musical genes as the composers.- The booklet provides extensive liner notes for each work. | |||
