Das Takacs Quartett ist als eines der weltweit führenden Streichquartette anerkannt. Es zeichnet sich durch die Fähigkeit aus, vier ausgeprägte, ausdrucksstarke musikalische Persönlichkeiten zu einem Ensemblespiel zu verschmelzen, das fesselnde, homogene Interpretationen zu gestalten vermag. Auf ihrer zweiten Aufnahme für Hyperion widmen sich die vier Musiker, sekundiert von dem Pianisten Stephen Hough, nun dem kammermusikalischen Schaffen von Johannes Brahms.
Takács Quartet’s first CD with Hyperion was heralded as a uniquely successful collaboration: ‘the best string quartet in the world’ working under ideal recording conditions, creating a release that is ‘a model for what chamber music should be’ (The Guardian). They now turn to Brahms’s celebrated Op 51 No 2, a work which the composer held back for years despite frequent requests for it until it had reached his requisite standard of perfection. Brahms’s struggle with the string quartet medium eventually led him to find an intensely personal language for it, with an unmistakable originality of melody and texture.
Tákacs Quartet’s recent performance of Brahms’s Piano Quintet in F minor with Stephen Hough elicited the following review: ‘Hough and the Takács are about to record this, and the result will be something to listen out for: chamber music does not get much better’ (The Guardian). Acclaimed for his concerto and solo playing, Hough is proved here also to be a truly great chamber musician; this recording is the product of a deep musical relationship. The Piano Quintet in F minor is a highly charged work of dark passion, often deeply sombre, yet always suffused with drama, requiring (and receiving here) the highest standards of musicianship.
'This is music-making on a high plane' (Fanfare, USA)
'These elegant Brahms performances manage to elucidate the darker, more turbulent emotions of the composer while maintaining a sense of intimacy' (Audiophile Audition, USA)
'Stephen Hough and the Takács know what they are doing, and they do the glorious work proud. The beautiful A minor quartet also gave me pleasure' (Sunday Times)
'The Takács Quartet bring a huge sense of enjoyment to both the Piano Quintet and the String Quartet Op 51 No 2, and it's clear that this chamber music is being revelled in by its players as much as its listeners. Stephen Hough's playing - shiny-toned, conversational, intelligent, well-balanced - is a special delight' (Classic FM Magazine)

Rezensionen
Stereo 04/08: "Ach, einfach herrlich, dieser warme, satte Klang zu Beginn des Andante aus dem a-Moll-Quartett von Brahms! Wunderbar, wie die vier Musiker hier ein sämiges Legato anrühren, ohne dabei aber jemals zu dick aufzutragen. Romantisches Espressivo-Spiel at it's best."- Tracklisting
