Description

The Alban Berg Quartett's traversal of all six Bartók string quartets remains one of the definitive recordings of these 20th-century masterworks — technically flawless and interpretively commanding. Originally recorded for EMI in the 1980s, this Warner Classics two-disc reissue offers exceptional value for anyone serious about chamber music. Essential repertoire, legendary performers, superb sound.

This is a used CD. The disc and case have been inspected and are in good condition. Broken or damaged jewel cases will be replaced before dispatch.
