MusicWeb International‘s Brian Reinhart has a new review for our Homage recording of Mozart’s Six Quartets Dedicated to Haydn:
“The Alexander String Quartet manages a double-act of time travel in their Mozart set. Aside from the trip back to Mozart’s day, they also offer a performing style that brings to mind some of the great string quartets of the early stereo era. … These are resolutely romantic performances, with a goal of being just as gorgeous, elegant, and glamorous as can be … and boy, do they succeed. … The Alexanders are a luxury string quartet: big, rich, impeccably tuned instrumental sound. The flowing slow movement of K428 feels like its nine minutes are exhaled in one deep breath. …given the high quality of these performances and the immediate presence of the recording, napping is not something you’re likely to be doing.” —Brian Reinhart, MusicWeb International
