"The Tippett Quartet spelar med enastående inlevelse..."
(Skånska Dagbladet)

Michael Tippett, who was 'invincibly drawn to the quartet medium' when he heard performances by the Busch and Léner Quartets during his student years in London, wrote five string quartets spanning his entire compositional life. On this first disc of the complete Quartets, the tuneful String Quartet No. 1 is followed by the String Quartet No. 2, notable for its abundant lyricism and lithe, dancing rhythms. In sharp contrast to both these works stands the more dissonant String Quartet No. 4, an unbroken sequence of numbered movements, which reflect the String Quartet Op. 131 of Tippett's compositional hero, Beethoven.
