Whenever the Borodin Quartet notches up an anniversary, so too does its cellist (and so in 2005, while the ensemble marks 60 years as what the Russians call the Quartet named Borodin , we also toast Valentin Berlinsky on his 80th birthday). This is very much as it should be: Valentin Berlinsky is both patriarch and soul of the quartet. As anchorman throughout of the group which turned to the Soviet authorities for its present name in 1955, Berlinsky has lived through many changes of personnel in the early years, guided the quartet through difficult times at home and on countless tours, and still imparts his ineffably cultured tones to its latest incarnation. Berlinsky was still in his teens, and not yet graduated from the cello class of the Moscow Conservatory, when in the autumn of 1944 he formed a quartet with three other students. The guiding force was an inspirational professor in the Conservatory s chamber department, Mikhail Terian, while the other players were first violinist Rostislav Dubinsky, who stayed until the 1970s, and - as second violin and viola respectively - Nina and Rudolf Barshai. (Nina was replaced first by Vladimir Rabei, who like the Barshais suffered to a certain extent from the anti-Semitism of the late Stalin years, then by Yaroslav Alexandrov; Rudolf, a future conductor of great integrity, by Dmitry Shebalin). At first they functioned under the title of the Moscow Philharmonic Quartet; in 1955 they took as their figurehead the composer of the most sheerly beguiling specimens in Russian musical history, Alexander Borodin. Another major Russian figure has always dominated the Borodins musical thinking. An evocative photograph from 1946 shows Dubinsky, the Barshais and a shock-haired, dreamy-eyed Berlinsky gathered round Dmitri Shostakovich - the composer whose cycle of 15 quartets was to become the cornerstone of the 20th century repertoire.
