The Quartetto Italiano is regarded as one of the finest string quartets of the twentieth century. The group generally focused on quartet-only repertory, avoiding performance with guest artists of quintets and other larger compositions. This Japanese reissue features Franz Schubert’s String Quartets No. 13 “Rosamunde” & No. 14 “Death and the Maiden”, recorded in 1980 & 1977 respectively.
