BEETHOVEN: EARLY, MIDDLE, & LATE QUARTETS

THE DANISH STRING QUARTET

“That mixture of casualness and control that comes out when they perform makes them the quartet I would most want to hear play just about anything. Chords all have a diamond edge, tunes pour like molten silver, staccato passages skip like stones across a lake.” — Justin Davidson, New York Magazine

FEATURING
