The Classical Voice of North Carolina‘s William Thomas Walker reviews our Southern Pines, North Carolina concert:
“Everything must be exactly right in Mozart, and the Alexander Quartet delivered the goods in spades. Intonation was perfect, and the phrasing was superb. Balance among and between instruments was fine. Wilson brought a glowing, warm tone to the extensive cello parts. … The extensive experience of the Alexander Quartet musicians was evident in every phase of their performance. They have issued two separate complete Beethoven cycles on CD. The intensity and inevitability of their playing was breathtaking. Rhythms were rock solid, and every note was in place within a well-considered overview. … First violinist Grafilo played the many extended violin solos brilliantly with marvelous warmth of tone. The plangent voice of Yarborough’s viola was a delight, as were solid low notes of Wilson’s cello. This was an extraordinarily effective performance.” —William Thomas Walker, Classical Voice of North Carolina
