More Ludwig

Not much to say about this selection really since it is another double cd by the Takacs Quartet of Beethoven String Quartets, this time the Early Quartets. All that I said in my earlier post about their recording of the late quartets pertains to this one, I expect that soon the entire set will appear as a bargain box reissue. I also have the third release to "come off the shelf" when its' turn arrives. The early quartets aren't as intense or radical as the late ones which is to be expected. It is still possible to hear how they are moving on from Haydn though.
