About the product: The string quartet is a genre that has been neglected by few of the great composers of the Romantic era, and Czech masters have contributed many important works to its international repertoire. Smetana's "From My Life" Quartet, Dvořák's "American" Quartet and Janáček's "Intimate Letters" are among the mature works of their composers and have become staple repertoire for quartets around the world. Moreover, Dvořák and Suk established an unbroken performance tradition that has given rise to a number of world-renowned Czech ensembles. A direct line of descent can be traced from the Smetana Quartet, which has performed Smetana's music on hundreds of concert stages, to the Panoch Quartet, which has made a highly acclaimed recording of the complete Dvořák quartets, to the Skamp Quartet, whose Janáček oozes with inimitable raw energy. This compilation offers the most famous works of the Czech quartet repertoire performed by the greatest masters of the art.
