Review by Impressão Final

The album Britten String Quartets 2 3 by Benjamin Britten, Brodsky Quartet is a stunning collection of classical music that showcases the brilliance of both the composer and the quartet. The album includes two of Britten's most famous string quartets, No. 2 in C major and No. 3, which are both performed with incredible precision and passion by the Brodsky Quartet.

The quartet's performance of Britten's String Quartet No. 2 is particularly impressive, as they capture the complex emotions of the piece with incredible sensitivity and nuance. From the hauntingly beautiful opening movement to the frenzied energy of the final movement, the Brodsky Quartet brings Britten's music to life with a level of artistry that is truly awe-inspiring.

Britten's String Quartet No. 3 is equally impressive, with the Brodsky Quartet delivering a powerful and emotional performance that is both technically flawless and deeply moving. The quartet's ability to convey the intense emotions of the piece is truly remarkable, and they demonstrate a deep understanding of Britten's music that is evident in every note they play.

About Benjamin Britten, Brodsky Quartet

British composer, conductor, and pianist. Born: November 22, 1913, in Lowestoft, UK - died: December 04, 1976, in Aldeburgh, UK. He showed talent from an early age, and first came to public attention with the a cappella choral work A Boy Was Born in 1934. With the premiere of his opera Peter Grimes in 1945, he leapt to international fame. For the next fifteen years he devoted much of his compositional attention to writing operas, establishing him as one of the leading 20th century figures in this genre. Britten's interests as a composer were wide-ranging; he produced important music in such varied genres as orchestral, choral, solo vocal (much of it written for the tenor Peter Pears), chamber and instrumental, as well as film music. He also took a great interest in writing music for children and amateur performers, and was a fine pianist and conductor. One of Britten's most important works, The War Requiem was completed 20 December 1961, and first performed 30 May 1962. Britten received many prizes and honors, including becoming a Companion of Honour in 1952, and a member of the Order of Merit in 1965.
