Our Take

Ah, the Emperor Quartet. A name that conjures up images of grandeur, power, and sophistication. But don't be fooled by the pomp and circumstance, because this quartet knows how to have a damn good time.

On their latest album, "Brittenstring Qtets 1 3", the Emperor Quartet brings us a delightful collection of Benjamin Britten's string quartets. And let me tell you, these Brittenstring Qtets are an absolute delight to listen to.

From the hauntingly beautiful melodies of Quartet No. 1 to the frenetic energy of Quartet No. 3, the Emperor Quartet showcases their virtuosity and chemistry in every note. The players' technical precision is nothing short of jaw-dropping, but what sets them apart is their ability to inject each piece with a sense of playfulness and joy.

The quartet's interpretation of Britten's work is fresh and exciting, breathing new life into these classic compositions. They approach each piece with a sense of curiosity and wonder, daring the listener to explore the depths of their musical imagination.

In conclusion, "Brittenstring Qtets 1 3" is a must-listen for any fan of chamber music. The Emperor Quartet's infectious energy and impeccable musicianship will leave you smiling from ear to ear. So grab a cup of tea, sit back, and let the Emperor Quartet take you on a musical journey unlike any other. Cheers, mates!
