CD Review
Borodin: String Quartets No. 1 and No.2 Arabesque
Z6658
Now you too can own the Borodin string quartets on a single compact
disc, and with but two to his name, the complete string quartets
of Alexander Borodin should be owned by everyone. The second, whose
familiar Notturno features Borodin’s most well-known melody,
is beautifully played by the Lark, America’s finest all-female
quartet….dance and sing to this fine playing.
Musician-October 1995
Though Borodin’s unusual place in the repertoire
makes him an intriguing choice for the Lark Quartet’s first
recording for Arabesque, it does offer the young quartet a chance
to show off some of the best elements of its playing. The Lark
manages to grasp the melodic richness of individual lines without
ever letting the collective musical intensity suffer.
