Franz Schmidt (1874-1939): Streichquartett A-Dur / Streichquartett G-Dur
Franz Schubert Quartett Wien
Released 2014.

Reviews:
"The two Franz Schmidt quartet quartets have been recorded before by the Vienna Konzerthaus Quartet for Preiser though the performances, dating from the 1960s, fell short of distinction. The Franz Schubert Quartet of Vienna play this music with a conviction, beauty of tone and wide dynamic range that eluded their predecessors. In short, these performances are unlikely to be surpassed for a long time, and can be warmly recommended. Both quartets take just under 40 minutes each so that Nimbus offer good value in giving us both on one CD." (Robert Layton, Gramophone)
