Over at the string quartet thread it's Verdi week, it has been a while since I've listened to his quartet so I thought it time as good as any for a listen

Giuseppe Verdi
String Quartet in E minor


Font Circle Electric blue Event Label


Quartetto Italiano

Good mono sound, a more substantial quartet than I remember, I may listen to Amadeus Quartet recording later in the week.
