ALEXANDER ZEMLINSKY (1871-1942): String Quartets, Vol. 2 - No. 1 in A, Op. 4 and No. 2, Op. 15.

Description: The other volume of the only budget-price recording of these quartets brings two large works, the late Romantic 32-minute No. 1 of 1896 and the 42-minute No. 2, a five-movement piece from 1913 which is much more modern while still basically tonal and which put Zemlinsky among the avant-garde of his day. Escher String Quartet.
