Description:
Depth of content, exuberant liveliness and sophistication of the compositional technique – Samuel Rhodes, violist of the renowned Juilliard String Quartet, praises Paul Hindemith's string quartets. The composer designed the Quartet op. 10 1918 at the front in Alsace, and yet it does not show the slightest influence of the terrible events of the war. The three-movement work is full of youthful exuberance and reflects Hindemith's new compositional techniques. His mastery and imagination in the use of instruments prove that he was already fully familiar with the string quartet genre. For the first time, all of Paul Hindemith's string quartets will be published based on the text of the Paul Hindemith Complete Edition.
