貝多芬: 弦樂四重奏全集(2) (啟示錄) 卡薩爾斯四重奏 Cuarteto Casals / Beethoven: Complete String Quartets vol.2 'Revelations' op.18 no.2 / op.59 nos. 2 & 3 / opp. 74 & 132

After ‘Inventions', ‘Revelations' is the second volume in a complete set of the Beethoven quartets that breaks new ground: it aims to regroup the works according to their position within the three broad creative divisions of the composer's life – the formative years, the ‘heroic' period and the late period. This programme assembles the ‘median quartets', in other words the works that prolonged and consolidated the stylistic innovations outlined at the beginning of each of these creative periods. ‘It'll be fascinating to hear the next instalment' (Gramophone).
