This is an incredible recording!!!
by sc175Honestly speaking, Boolez is like a bad music critic >>> only knows how to listen to music with his mind.
Simply put, this is one of the best Quartet recordings to date!
Sometimes great players can get it wrong.
by BoolezI really wanted to like this album. Messiaen was a one of the 20th century's most imaginative compsers and the performers are great players in their own right but the interpretation seems to be lacking. While they all play the parts with ease, there was something of a spirt in the piece that I found to be missing. Shaham and company seem to have taken a more romantic aproach to the piece that doesn't play well for me as well as a shocking lack of cohesiveness that is basic to chamber music. There are much better readings out there. My personal favorite is the Tashi recording but there is a good crop of others to choose from, including the ones featuring either Messian himself or his wife.
