Description: | Erich Wolfgang Korngold wrote a significant body of chamber music (the Piano Trio and String Sextet are
on Naxos 8.574008). His three String Quartets reflect differing periods of composition. The First marries
impetuousness with enticing harmonies and rapt eloquence. The Second, which dates from 1933, is notable
for its clarity, rhythmic impetus and melodic directness. The post-war Third is more relaxed, unexpectedly
juxtaposing the archaic and modern with a joyful conclusion. - .. QUARTETS NOS. 1-3?Erich Wolfgang Korngold wrote a significant body of chamber music (the Piano Trio and String Sextet are on Naxos 8.574008). His three String Quartets reflect differing periods of composition. The First marries impetuousness with enticing harmonies and rapt eloquence. The Second dates from 1933 and has great clarity and rhythmic impetus, with a full complement of Korngold's lyricism. The post-war Third is more relaxed, unexpectedly juxtaposing the archaic and modern with a joyful conclusion. The acclaimed Tippett Quartet can also be heard in works by Bax, Górecki, Panufnik, Penderecki, Rozsa and Michael Tippett. |
