Zehetmair Quartet - Schumann: String Quartet Nos. 1 & 3

The Zehetmair Quartet's fresh, spontaneous approach to chamber music proved thrilling on their previous ECM account of Bart�k and Hartmann and is every bit as revelatory on this 19th century core repertoire - it's as if they return the poetry and immediacy to this much played music of Schumann's. The Zehetmair Quartet makes it new. Voted Album of the Year at the Gramophone Awards
