Another superb quartet by the master, beautifully played. Thank you for the upload!

Milhaud was an accomplished and eloquent string quartet composer. I don't understand why his quartets are absent from concert programs.

They might have attracted more attention if he'd written fewer of them. I'm not sure he did himself any favours by setting out to beat Beethoven's count.
