Claudio Abbado

String Quintet Op.97/string Sextet Op.48 Claudio Abbado

The Jerusalem Quartet explores two aspects of Dvorák's chamber music: one of the first big successes in the genre of a Bohemian composer who now enjoyed a well-established reputation in Europe (op.48), and one of the masterpieces from the years of American exile which brought him worldwide fame (op.97). A chance to discover two places, two periods, but always the same depth of expression in this indefatigable composer endowed with remarkable creative faculties.
