The Artemis Quartet is one of the most regarded chamber ensembles internationally, making this hidden gem that is this recording of Dvořák’s “American” Quartet a true discographic event. As the New York Times stated:

“This group finds a balance between projecting musical structure and conveying immediacy. The players cultivate unity of thought and intention but not conformity of sound and style … Though the players think as one, their individuality comes through." “The group plays with refined vitality and a sound that has the lithe glow of a copper wire … vigor, brilliance and sensitivity ... clarity of conception and unfussy directness. ”
