Archaeus Quartet member Liz Turnbull says:
‘Despite the fact that we have a body of quartets by Haydn, Mozart, Schubert, Dvorak, Shostakovich and Bartok there is something unique in the journey through the quartets of Beethoven. They are the pinnacle, the “Everest” of quartet music for both player and listener.
Beethoven journeyed further over his lifetime expressively, conceptually and emotionally than any other composer. The early quartets reflect the classical beauty of Haydn and Mozart, the middles reflect the independent “heroic” Beethoven, and the late quartets transcend all others in their philosophy and expression of humanity. The string quartet is itself an instrument of perfect balance played by four people, and it is this which enables Beethoven to express his most profound, intimate and universal thoughts.’
