Shostakovich: The Complete String Quartets

The Jerusalem Quartet, hailed by The Strad as “one of the young, yet great quartets of our time,” has garnered international acclaim for its rare combination of passion and precision.  These musicians have won audiences the world over, both in concert and on their recordings for the Harmonia Mundi label. Their recording of Shostakovich quartets was selected as BBC Music Magazine’s top pick in the chamber music category at its 2007 Award Ceremony.
