Our Take

The ORBELIANMOSCOW STRING QTT's performance of Shostakovich's19th and Schnittke's 3rd string quintets is a wild ride through the depths of Soviet-era anguish and despair. From the hauntingly melancholic melodies to the frenetic, dissonant harmonies, this album is a rollercoaster of emotions that will leave you feeling like you've just survived a Soviet labor camp.

The quartet's technical precision is impeccable, with each note played with a meticulous attention to detail that brings out the full range of emotions in these dark and brooding compositions. The interplay between the strings is like a well-choreographed dance, with each member seamlessly blending their individual voices into a cohesive whole.

Shostakovich's quintet is a masterclass in emotional depth, with its stark contrasts between moments of quiet introspection and frenzied outbursts of anger and despair. Schnittke's quintet, on the other hand, is a twisted, dissonant nightmare that will leave you questioning your sanity.

Overall, this album is a must-listen for any fan of 20th-century classical music. The ORBELIANMOSCOW STRING QTT's interpretation of these quintets is nothing short of breathtaking, and will leave you gasping for breath by the time the final notes fade away. Don't miss out on this stunning musical experience.
