Our Take

The Kuss Quartet and Wolfgang Emanuel Schmidt team up to take on the heavyweights of classical music with their latest release, "Brahms / Schoenberg Quartets". This album is like a musical fusion cuisine, mixing the traditional warmth of Brahms with the bold experimentations of Schoenberg in one tantalising bite.

The Kuss Quartet show off their impeccable technique and tight ensemble playing throughout, tackling the intricate counterpoint of Brahms with finesse and grace. From the sweeping melodies of the Brahms quartets to the dense, chromatic textures of the Schoenberg pieces, the quartet navigates the shifting moods and styles with ease.

Erdmann's cello playing is a standout feature on this album, adding depth and richness to the quartet's sound. His expressive phrasing in the Brahms quartets is truly captivating, drawing the listener in with every nuanced turn of phrase.

While the Schoenberg quartets may be a less familiar territory for some listeners, the Kuss Quartet's interpretation brings a fresh perspective to these complex works. They delve fearlessly into the atonal and dissonant world of Schoenberg, creating a sense of tension and unease that is both thrilling and mesmerising.

Overall, "Brahms / Schoenberg Quartets" is a bold and ambitious album that showcases the Kuss Quartet's versatility and musicianship. It's a musical rollercoaster that will leave you breathless and begging for more. Trust me, this is one wild ride you won't want to miss.
