| | String quartet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A string quartet is a musical ensemble of four string instruments—usually two violins, a viola and cello—or a piece written to be performed by such a group. | | | Although any combination of four string instruments can literally be called a "string quartet", in practice the term refers to a group consisting of two violins (the "first" and "second" violin), one viola and one cello. | | | The standard string quartet is widely seen as one of the most important forms in chamber music, with most major composers, from the late 18th century onwards, writing string quartets. |

| | The quartet began recording with Sony Classical Columbia Records and CBS Masterworks) in 1949 and the group's discography currently numbers 100 items including repertoire well-travelled and unfamiliar. | | | I find this CD set and the others in the series (Early and Middle Quartets) to be quite satsfying for listening. | | | I rate this CD set not as a professional music critic, but as a former violin/viola player who loves chamber music. |

| | Salon The golden years |
| | For me and for a small group of other string players at the Juilliard School, Bobby Mann was the center of our musical universe, the man who had known everyone and played everything everywhere, and the man who taught like God. | | | The quartet played a significant role in establishing and maintaining the virtual hegemony America enjoyed in the classical music world for much of the century. | | | The children of the recording era have conspired to kill this kind of individuality in classical musicians of every sort; and the success of this conspiracy is largely responsible for the sorry pass to which classical music has come today. |

| | PROGRAM NOTES concert 1 - Juilliard String Quartet |
| | The first movement theme, now something of a motto, is transformed yet again into what John Clapham characterizes as "a skittish Slavonic tune in 2/4." In a brief respite, the first violin presents a reflective, lovely cadenza just before the jubilant, powerful conclusion. | | | For the cello this often takes the form of a dialogue with the first violin, as in the first movement. | | | In order to maintain the soloistic balance, Mozart was obliged occasionally to emphasize the viola and even the second violin. |
