Weigl: String Quartets 4 and 6, Intermezzi

[Tapiola]

Very happy to see that the Thomas Christian Ensemble is completing the cycle of Weigl's quartets:

Professional performances that will be much better than the ones provided by the subpar Ensemble Mark Rothko on Urania.

This is good news indeed, but by "completing" do you mean they're on their way to completing it? They've only recorded two quartets so far, so this new release will mean they've tackled half of them.

[Tapiola]

Sorry for the confusion. I wasn't being clear. I meant they are completing the cycle with great performances along with the recordings of Nos. 1, 3 and 5 that feature the Artis Quartett on Nimbus and Orfeo (I had in my mind the TCE had recorded them already).

[John Boyer]

Got it! Thanks.

What we still need, then, is a solid performance of number two.  Let's hope!
