Cherubini's first quartet


I stumbled on this quartet this morning and I couldn't stop listening to it. It wasn't so much the music that caught my attention but these performers are absolutely wonderful. Their intonation and phrasing is just phenomenal. They bring so much life to a piece I don't think I would normally be dying to listen to. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

Also, bonus points to the person who can name the piece/composer cherubini borrows the first melody from at the very beginning of the first movement. It sounds so familiar!
