The Kolisch Quartet [Rec. 1929-1937] Plays Mozart · Schumann · Wolf [Re-Up]

Date: 17 Aug 2009 18:12:44

The "Wiener Streichquartett" remained in its first successful form until 1926. After that, three musicians joined the ensemble in the course of a year, whom Kolisch himself described as the "definitive" members of the quartet: Felix Khuner, second violin, Eugene Lehner, viola, and Benar Heifetz, violoncello. In his letters to Schoenberg, Kolisch raved over the tireless enthusiasm with which his young quartet colleagues studied the repertoire… Eugene Lehner describes it "When Heifetz and I joined the quartet, the whole day was one rehearsal. We met at about ten o'clock in the morning in Mama Kolisch's apartment, and practiced till late in the evening…. When rehearsing, whether alone or in the presence of the composer, the idea of time never came into anyone's head. What could anyone do other than play quartets?"

I urge you to listen to this particular quartet formation playing this type of repertoire, based on Schoenberg's manifesto on interpretative guidelines. The Kolisch paper [Musikblätter des Änbruch, VI, 1924, p.306/7] written as a Sepcial Edition for Schoenberg's 50th Birthday [13 September 1924] is included in the scanned notes. Enjoy!
