Toch's early chamber music is still vastly underplayed and underrated, notwithstanding that the situation has improved considerably over the past forty years. I remember attempting to draw the attention of various musicians to his music (notably, his chamber music) back in the early to mid-1980s. In those days very few professional musicians knew anything about Ernst Toch or his oeuvre. A masterful rendition of this splendid opus! Bravo!
Sus vídeos de los cuartetos de los Maestros Toch y Shebalin son realmente sobresaliente. Esta música tiene las melodías y armonías de que son suave mas sofisticado. Las dos obras por el gran Maestro Villa-Lobos son también verdaderamente maravillosa. Muchas gracias y saludos desde Tokio.
An "angry" quartet or where melancholy is a grizzy bear in a deep "closed and isolated" grand forest. Nothing against its natural consistency but I was used to listen to more optimist and sunshined tunes. I don´t know if somebody alreadey nicknamed this piece - I would call it "Pathetic" or "Grey Medidation". Thanks.
