| | 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. |

| | Rosamunde Quartet: Andreas Reiner, Simon Fordham (violins), Helmut Nicolai (viola), Anja Lechner (cello). | | | Still, with a half-hour of spare room on the CD, and with no other Burian works listed in the Schwann catalogue, it is a very great pity that another of his quartets was not included. | | | ECM are also the source of yet another new recording of the ubiquitous Eighth Quartet in its original formulation. |

| | The darkly resonant tones of the lower strings in the opening Largo were a prelude to the precise, crisp attack of the violins in the succeeding Allegro molto. | | | The superb string playing of the New World musicians and the beautifully articulated solos by the first chair violin, viola, and cello principals contributed to a deeply moving interpretation. | | | The Chamber Symphony Op 110a (the composer's chosen title) was the centerpiece of an excellent concert by the strings of the New World Symphony on 19 September 2004 at the Lincoln Theater in Miami Beach, Florida, USA. |

| | The rich-toned, vividly shaped music making of the Rosamunde Quartet, which debuted in Berlin in 1992, is a sound to look forward to in future recordings. | | | The youthful innocence of Webern is in bold contrast to the world-weary, psyche-damaged expressions of Burian, a concentration camp survivor, and Shostakovich, who wrote this quartet amidst a career of relentless, numbing Stalinist artistic oppression. | | | The bitter, yet songful String Quartet No. 4 was his first postwar work. |

| | But listen to a good one, such as the young Borromeo String Quartet that played at the Phillips Collection Sunday afternoon, and you get the uncanny sense that the whole is audibly greater that the sum of its parts. | | | Inner voices were given full sway, but not at the expense of losing Nicholas Kitchen’s singing first violin lines or Yeesun Kim’s potent cello contributions. | | | From the gray and somber poetry of the opening Largo to the charged Allegro Molto, the Borromeo gave voice and character to every musical thread of this harrowing tapestry. |
