Excellent rapport: The Takács Quartet and Marc-André Hamelin at Koerner Hall

Stanley Fefferman, 10th November

Each time I hear the Takács Quartet in concert a new excellence comes through: this time it is their gentleness. Schubert’s String Quartet in A minor, “Rosamunde” is allowed to unfold gently, as the petals of a rose open themselves.
