溫伯格: 弦樂四重奏,第五集 第3,9,14號
阿卡迪亞四重奏
The Arcadia Quartet reaches the penultimate release in its acclaimed complete Weinberg string quartets series with this volume, featuring Quartets Nos 3, 9, and 14. As in previous volumes, the works are taken from contrasting periods of Weinberg’s compositional development, and so present a varied programme that works in its own right. Quartet No. 3, composed in 1944, could be considered as the first ‘mature’ quartet, and is set in three movements. The Ninth Quartet, composed in 1963, dates from his self-described ‘starry decade’, when his work was championed by a significant group of enthusiastic performers, including Emil Gilels, Leonid Kogan, Kirill Kondrashin, Rudolf Barshai, and the Borodin Quartet. Quartet No. 14 dates from 1978, three years after the death of Weinberg’s great friend and mentor Shostakovich: a time when Weinberg was questioning and renewing his artistic identity. The album also includes the short Improvisation and Romance, from 1950.
