6. Among recordings of Beethoven's string quartets there is an abundance of choice. Many of finest string quartet groups have recorded the full cycle. Having heard these quartets performed by the Alban Berg Quartet ("ABQ"), the Juilliard Quartet ("JQ"), the Kodaly Quartet ("KQ"), and the Cleveland Quartet ("CQ"), I find each of these groups 5/5(5).

9. In the late quartets the Guarneri players keep their distance from Beethoven’s elevated, occasionally ponderous rhetoric, preferring a lighter touch. Note the gracefulness that informs Op. , where the musicians make clear their preference for Beethoven’s shorter revised finale (the Grosse Fuge appears on a separate disc).
