This new release from DUX presents string quartets by Reinhold Gli\xe8re (1875\x961956), a Kyiv-born composer who was active in Russia and then in the Soviet Union. His output combines features of late-romantic music with characteristic Russian temperament and affection, French impressionism and folk music influences. \r
\r

The painterly qualities and spontaneity of Gli\xe8re's oeuvre perfectly fit into the classical form of the string quartet: Quartet No. 1 in A Major, Op. 2 dates back to the beginning of the century (1900) and sits within in the neo-romantic style, while the second, only 5 years younger, Quartet No. 2 in G Minor, Op. 20 (1905), is characterized by references to both Russian folklore and more distant, oriental moods. \r
\r

The Gli\xe8re Quartet, who have dedicated their activities to Reinhold Gli\xe8re's music, consists of: Wladislaw Winokurow (violin), Dominika Falger (violin), Martin Edelmann (viola) and Endre F. Stankowsky (cello).\r

Critical Acclaim\r
\r
'I know what really superb string playing sounds like and this is it\x85the G-Minor Quartet, in particular, sounds rhythmically quite tricky and technically difficult, yet the ensemble navigates it smoothly and without any compromises in tone quality, intonation, or togetherness.' \x96 Fanfare\r
\r
\r

'a wonderfully lush and rich palette which is very effectively caught on this recording by the excellent eponymous Gli\xe8re String Quartet in the well engineered DUX sound. [\x85] it has to be said the playing is passionate and full-toned \x96 as well as virtuosic \x96 in a manner that suits this music perfectly.' \x96 MusicWeb International
