About The Record:
Mozart: 34 Complete String Quartets And Quintets, by Emil Kessinger, is a comprehensive recording featuring the Barchet Quartet with Emil Kessinger on second viola for the quintets, presenting all of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's string quartets and the six string quintets in a multi-LP set originally from the 1950s on the Vox label. This ambitious project stands out for its completeness in covering Mozart's chamber works for strings in that era, showcasing the Barchet Quartet's dedicated interpretations of these masterpieces during the mid-20th century revival of interest in classical chamber music recordings. Emil Kessinger, a noted violist and professor at the Stuttgart Hochschule, adds depth to the quintets with his expertise, contributing to historically significant early complete traversals on record. Among the works, fan-favorites include the six quartets dedicated to Haydn and the profound String Quintet in C major K. 515 and G minor K. 516, celebrated for their emotional intensity and innovative structures. No hit singles or chart positions apply to this classical chamber music collection.
