Introduction
Do you find Beethoven’s string quartets impressive? Considered the Everest of string music, this collection of sixteen pieces is intimidating in its intellectual depth, its prodigious formal invention, and its monumental expression. Aware of this reputation for difficulty, the musicians of the Zaïde Quartet offer a completely new perspective on Beethoven.
The German composer was, in fact, a lover of traditional music: Gypsy tunes, tarantellas, and other Scottish dances abound in his works. Blending quartets from different periods with folk tunes (sometimes imaginary), the Zaïde Quartet presents a rhythmic, demanding, and accessible recital. A Beethoven on a human scale. A Beethoven for everyone.
