Melos Quartett

This is a reissue CD set of the 15 Schubert Quartets by the Weiner (Vienna) Konzerthaus Quartet. This 6 CD set was issued by Universal Music France in 1998. The 20-bit remastering from the original master tapes is excellent. Although these hard to find monaural Westminster label recordings date from 1950 to 1953, the sound is full and warm. The playing and performances are superb. The CD booklet notes in French and English leave something to desire. However, this CD set is worth getting your hands on while it's still available!

The Melos Quartet (of Stuttgart) was founded in 1965, so I was a bit perplexed to see that they had recorded the complete Schubert String Quartets in the early 1950's.

The explanation for this apparent anachronism is - as is fairly often the case - that the review posted is a 'loan' from Amazon, where it is to be found under this reisue. Whether it is misplaced or simply an error, I don't know.

The recordings are in fact made between 1973 and 1975 and they come highly recommended (*** Diapason).
