Mozart, Alban Berg Quartett - I Dieci Grandi Quartetti Per Archi - CD2 ‎(CD, Album). Mozart, Alban Berg Quartett. Chopin, Arthur Rubinstein - Integrale Dei Notturni CD2 ‎(CD, Album).

Format: Audio CD. I first became aware of the Alban Berg Qt. with their breakthrough albums on Teldec in the late Seventies, among them some breathtaking Mozart recordings. They are just as great and just as breathtaking in this later remake for EMI of Mozart's mature quartets beginning with no. 14, K. 387, the first of six quartets dedicated to Haydn. This is a marvellous album, and one of the best modern-instrument versions. The Berg go at this music with determination and passion and precision, and the result is often electifying. To my mind their playing is better here, and they are better recorded, than in their later albums for EMI (with the exception of their relatively recent Schubert albums). The recently released Quartetto Italiano album (Phillips) rivals this one for sheer joy; the Berg are lean and direct, the Italiano more sumptuous and relaxed-both are passionate and precise.

The Alban Berg Quartett was a string quartet founded in Vienna, Austria in 1970, named after Alban Berg. The Berg Quartet was founded in 1970 by four young professors of the Vienna Academy of Music, and made its debut in the Vienna Konzerthaus in autumn 1971. The widow of the composer Alban Berg, Helene, attended an early private concert after which she gave her consent for the quartet to use her husband's name.
