Customer Reviews:
A colossal set!.......2005-05-24
Keeping in mind these performances may be placed in a triumphant third place after The Budapest Quartet (in their forties) and Vegh (both performances from the fifties and early seventies) that is by itself an extraordinary ackonwledgement for that ensamble.
The articulated voices and the rhythmic pulsations is first order, the Beethovenian harsh dissonances are expressed with absolute conviction and artistic commitment.
Highly recommended.
Extraordinary recordings of the most beautiful music.......2001-10-25
I rate Beetoven's late quartets as the most beautiful music ever written. Especially, I'm fond of op 131. Lindsays and Vegh like none else capture the moment in this music bringing the true soul of Beethoven to us. Like one other reviewer said : I am more happy person because I know Beethoven's late quartets and Lindsays. I trully agree with that.
Soul searching music playing from Lindsay Quartet.......2001-06-03
Most beautiful music making from the Lindsays. They get much closer to the heart & soul of Beethoven than Alban Berg Quartett. The playing is spacious & warmly recorded.
Incredible Performances.......2000-04-02
I have several versions of the Beethoven Late Quartets including the Alban Berg and Guarneri sets. The Lindsays are the ones I keep playing however. Their interpretations bring extra depth to these profound works. These works require repeated listenings so that one can begin to hear and grasp the sublime wonders that lie within. The Lindsays help illuminate the road to discovery, as they seem to understand all the nuances. The natural tempos, the conversations amongst the players and the musicality that is inherent in each phrase make for a rewarding experience. Highly recommended!
The best introduction to the greatest music ever written.......1999-05-03
The Lindsays bring you into the special world of late Beethoven like no other ensemble. I'd agree with the previous reviewer that they aren't technically perfect. But listen to the striving sonorities of the Grosse Fuge, of the throbbing emotions of the Cavatina in Op. 130, or the joyful finale of Op.135, and see if you complain. The Lindsays introduced me to late Beethoven many years ago, and I'm still waiting to hear any greater expression of the human spirit.
