Artemis Quartet
A journey through Beethoven’s life and art begins with the youthful exuberance of the Op. 18 quartet. It then moves through the terse drama of Op. 95, and ends in a place that words can’t describe, on the rarefied heights of Op. 132. Leading the journey is a string quartet that, says the New York Times, “has always played with vigor, brilliance and sensitivity.”
