Schubert: String Quartet No.14 in D minor, D.810 I Shostakovich: Chamber Symphony, Op.110A (CD)
„A quartet for string orchestra! This will sound strange to you. I already know all objections that will be raised: the destruction of intimacy, of individuality. But this would be mistaken. What I intend is nothing but an ideal representation of the quartet.“ (Gustav Mahler, 1899)

Sergei Rachmaninov: Symphony No. 2 in E minor, op. 27 I The Rock, Symphonic Poem op. 7 by Academic Symphony Orchestra of the St. Petersburg Philharmonia / Alexander Dmitriev (CD)
Made in Germany“. Maybe it sounds strange at first glance to headline a symphony of the Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninov like this. However, if one looks closer to the genesis of his Second Symphony there is some good reason for it since he wrote it during his stay in Dresden.

Peter Tchaikovsky: String Quartet No. 1 in D minor, op. 11 I String Quartet No. 3 in E flat minor, op. 30 by New Philharmonic Quartet (CD)
Tchaikovsky’s three quartets were written during one fiveyear period, a time of rapid growth and maturing of his talent and creativity. Just as he pointed in one of his newspaper reviews to the love and attention which Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven had lavished on this “modest form of music, which, in the narrow confines of four bowed instruments, provides for the richest development of musical ideas,” Tchaikovsky’s own approach to chamber music was similarly serious and profound. His quartets combine the exquisite, refined sonorities of an ensemble with truly symphonic development and an amazingly warm and accessible musical language.
