Dmitri Shostakovich's fifteen string quartets form one of the most profound cycles in chamber music, and the Borodin Quartet's 1997 reading of numbers 1, 2, and 4 demonstrates why. Composed across four decades, these quartets move from agitated modernism through increasingly introspective soundscapes, exploring both geometric precision and raw emotional anguish. The Borodin players bring Slavic warmth and intensity to these difficult works, emphasizing their lyrical undercurrent even at their most structurally complex. Shostakovich's harmonic language here is often angular and unsettling, yet the performances find genuine beauty in his austere vision. Essential for understanding twentieth-century chamber music.
