description
The first volume of the recording of the complete string quartets by Sergei Taneyev!
Sergei Taneyev (1856-1915) was one of the most important musical figures in Russia around 1900. A pupil of both Tchaikovsky and Nikolai Rubinstein he was destined to a brilliant career as a pianist (he played the first Moscow performance of Tchaikovsky’s first Piano Concerto!). However he settled as a composer and influential teacher, of Scriabin, Rachmaninoff, Medtner and Glière.
Taneyev’s style, though full bloodedly Romantic, was influenced by the Classics, particularly Beethoven and Brahms, whereas his later works saw a return to the counterpoint of no other than J.S. Bach.
This first volume of the string quartets presents the quartets nos. 1 and 4.
Played by the Swiss-based Rasumowsky Quartet. The Rasumowsky Quartet gained international attention with the complete recording of all fifteen string quartets by Dmitri Shostakovich on his 100th birthday in 2006. Maxim Shostakovich considers the recording “one of the best recordings of my father’s music ever”.
