Tchaikovsky was, and in so many ways still is, a cult figure whose genius and artistry has been somewhat obscured by his celebrity status and the worldwide popularity of ‘Brand Tchaikovsky’ embodied in his symphonies, operas and ballet music. So the Dudok Quartet went on a mission to reveal new meaning to these quartets, to make them both fresh and relevant to 21st century audiences.
In this concluding second volume of our survey of Tchaikovsky’s complete string quartets, we explore the limits of his output as a composer of chamber music. This album opens with his earliest, single-movement String Quartet in B-flat major and moves on to his ultimate String Quartet No. 3 from 1876. This last work gives shape to Tchaikovsky’s deeply felt exclamation, transformed into music after learning about the passing of his dear friend Ferdinand Laub, the violinist who premiered his earlier two string quartets.
