The Brentano String Quartet delivers its third volume of Beethoven’s late quartets, this album featuring Op. 130 and Op. 133. On the latter piece, which concludes this recording, Beethoven the visionary proclaims his unshakeable faith in a world facing menace and chaos. One of his most inspired works, it's impossible not to be impressed by the sharpness of the stroke, the clarity of the discourse and the intensity of the affects. Brilliant virtuosos, the superb mastery of the Brentanos has made them famous and displays its full power on this final volume in the series.
