"... numerous subsequent ensembles have opened out the performing tradition in new and unexpected ways, not least the Sorrel Quartet, whose excellent traversal continues with this hitherto untried pairing of works from either end of the cycle. Cordially recommended ..."
- International Record Review
Between 1998 and 2005, British ensemble the Sorrel String Quartet recorded the entire cycle of Shostakovch's string quartets, receiving great critical praise with the release of each volume in the six-album series. This is the fourth installment, recorded in 2003.
