After the initial positive reactions the extraordinary quality of the recording was confirmed by prestigious Gramophone Awards; in addition to winning the chamber music category, the young ensemble also brought home from London the top prize: Recording of the Year. Eight years after the first edition, Supraphon is releasing this delicacy for true audiophiles. Dvorák's mature works perhaps best mirror the ensemble's extraordinary qualities: the equilibrium between precision and spontaneity, the remarkable ensemble playing, and the solo potential of all of the individual players. At the end of the draft of his Quartet Op. 96, Antonín Dvorák wrote the comment: "I'm satisfied; it went quickly..." Soon after the "New World Symphony", he composed one of the most beautiful of all string quartets while still in America - and the critics were unsparing in their praise. For the Pavel Haas Quartet, both the "American" Quartet and the following Quartet Op. 106, the first work composed after the composer's return home from America, are literally affairs of the heart. According to the Sunday Times: "In this repertoire, they are simply matchless today." Dvorák might even have written his comment "I'm satisfied" about this recording as well.The LP "Streichquartette" by the Pavel Haas Quartet, released by Supraphon, presents a captivating journey through some of the most profound works in the string quartet repertoire. Renowned for their passionate interpretations and technical brilliance, the Pavel Haas Quartet has established itself as one of today?s leading chamber ensembles. Their performances are celebrated worldwide for their emotional depth and dynamic range. This album showcases their mastery with meticulously crafted renditions that bring out both intensity and subtlety in each composition. Supraphon, a prestigious Czech label founded in 1932, is known for its dedication to classical music excellence and has been instrumental in promoting Eastern European artists on an international stage. The combination of this acclaimed ensemble with Supraphon's high production standards ensures an exceptional listening experience. |
