ARRIAGA: String Quartets (Complete)
Known as “The Spanish Mozart” after his premature death at the age of 19, Juan Crisóstomo de Arriaga was a precociously talented composer as well as an excellent violinist. With a style somewhere between Mozart and the early romanticism of Beethoven or Schubert, his three String Quartets, published in Paris in 1824, demonstrate Arriaga’s genius for winning melodies, emotional pathos and innovative structure.
