We are very happy that our Schubert recording was awarded with the Quarterly Critic’s Choice!
That’s the praise of the jury:
„It is rare to find such compelling dramaturgy in a programme of music that was written almost two centuries apart. The sonic contrast between recorder and string quartet is explored impressively, with a range of different playing techniques employed in Iris ter Schiphorst’s Schubert homage »Sei gutes Muts« (2021). In Mark Andre’s Seven Pieces (2022/23), the quartet creates a barely-perceptible, ghostly sound world. For the album’s centrepiece, Schubert’s quartet, the Kuss Quartet gets an extra star for its expressive, at times almost metallic playing.“
