Pacific Quartet ViennaAbout
In the same year, and interestingly written in immediate spatial and temporal proximity to the studio in which Beethoven was just about to open the doors to musical modernism, Schubert, after having spent several weeks in the Vienna general hospital for treatment of his suspected syphilis desease, composed his String Quartet no.13 in A minor, D804, the so-called “Rosamunde” Quartet. It may be said that, precisely due to Schubert’s bleak outlook on the future, the categories of “loss” and “memory” became central parameters of an entire composition for the first time in music history.
Both quartets are performed here by the internationally acclaimed Pacific Quartet Vienna for their third album release with Gramola Records.
