Fitzwilliam String Quartet
One of the most gorgeous recorded versions of Schubert’s String Quintet is now available once more. The cellist was Christopher van Kampen with whom the Fitzwilliam Quartet often performed. The other performances on this CD have been released on CD for the first time.
“…a reading exceptionally faithful to Schubert’s markings, yet one which with freshness and seeming spontaneity conveys the work’s masterly power and impulse too.” Penguin Guide
