String Quartets Nos. 2 & 3 & 4 & 8

String Quartets Nos. 2 & 3 & 4 & 8

Contemporaries of Joachim Raff (1822-82) valued him as an expert in the history of music and art and as a composer who knew how to produce richly colored instrumentations. Following releases of some of his symphonies and piano trios, cpo now turns to the composers Second, Third, Fourth and Eighth String Quartets. In his Â»middle quartetsÂ« the classicistic control of his music from those years makes itself manifest, i.e., interpretive markings in Italian, exposition repeats unmotivated by an increased degree of difficulty, a reduction in chromatics and a return to old dance forms.
