Review title: Among the best after the Borodin Quartet
Product review: Let's face it, only the Borodin Quartet seems to inhabit this music as no other ensemble can. They seem to know that, at this bar Dmitri Dmitrivich shed a tear -- and here his hand trembled, there the manuscript is spotted with vodka, and now we must all play like the gypsies he heard that time in the Crimea...No western quartet can approach that kind of understanding. But the Manhattan quartet makes fine music -- often glowing, often darkly sad or infused with anger -- of the notes on the page. I think it is equal to the level of the Fitzwilliam and Emerson Quartet recordings -- and I mean the complete set, not this volume alone.
