 Amadeus Quartet rules July 27, 2005
7 out of 10 found this review helpful
I bought the CD primarily to replace an old DATM tape. This performance is breathtaking. It has just the right barely-in-control feeling that the fast movements need, but never loses a note. The slow movement is poignant and heart-rending.
I've only listened to the Trout once, but it also seems near-perfect.
Catch This "Trout" November 15, 2000

This performance of Schubert's "Trout" Quintet and the "Death and the Maiden" Quartet by the Amadeus String Quartet is simply first rate. The great Emil Gilels joins the ensemble for the "Trout" recording, and needless to say his playing is outstanding and completely complimentary. There are other stellar "Trout" recordings out there -- a recent digital disc featuring Yo-Yo Ma and Edgar Meyer on Sony, and another older analog stereo title featuring the Guarneri SQ and Emanuel Ax on RCA High Performance come to mind. I have also enjoyed listening to versions of "Death and the Maiden" by the Emerson String Quartet, and the one by the Melos Quartet on the DG "Collectors Edition" box set. If you are looking for a larger collection of Schubert's string pieces one of the aforementioned titles may be your best bet. However, if all you desire is a quintessential recording of Schubert's two most famous pieces for strings, then you can't go wrong with this "DG Originals" disc by Amadeus.
