Hollywood String Quartet: The Unpublished Live London Recordings
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
The Haydn and Mozart quartets are the only live performances ever published by this celebrated ensemble, which made many recordings in the early 1950s. They are even more intense and vital than the group's studio recordings, full of drive and power, but never going outside the bounds of the classical style. The HSQ also does full justice to the wonderful quartet by Mozart's favorite pupil, Hummel, in what still seems to be its only recording since before World War II. This is one of the most valuable issues of Testament's extensive Hollywood String Quartet series. --Leslie Gerber
