The Doric String Quartet is known for their sensitivity in slow movements in particular. Gramophone wrote of Vol. 1, Allied to precision in articulation is a flexibility in the scansion and shaping of phrases, of notes timed through a remarkable understanding of rubato, of a range of expressive resilience that gives even the smalles of episodes in a long line their own characterand this is Vol 1.
