Quatuor Modigliani offers a complete survey of the string quartets of Franz Schubert. Though all of these works have been recorded and performed with varying degrees of regularity, the composer's late, mature quartets are much more popular in recordings and on the concert stage. Written when he was a teenager, Schubert's early quartets are influenced understandably by the music of the Classical period, especially Mozart and Haydn, to be performed by family members and schoolmates. The development of Schubert as a composer is heard throughout his quartets, even between the relatively short period from his first (1810) to tenth (1813), but especially apparent is the composer's growth during his hiatus from writing for string quartet. He set aside the form after completing his eleventh quartet in 1816 until another attempt was made in 1820. The resulting Quartettsatz was left unfinished, and even though it is only a single movement work, it was published as his twelfth quartet; the Quartettsatz arguably coincides with the beginning of his mature period. Following a period of severe illness, Schubert returned to the string quartet medium again in 1824 with the Rosamunde Quartet, named thus because it recalls a theme from the composer's incidental music for the play Rosamunde, Fürstin von Zypern. The Quatuor Modigliani delivers precise readings throughout and have developed a wonderful ensemble sound. With powerful dynamic contrast, the group navigates the stylistic changes that occurred during the prolific, tragically short life of this remarkable composer. Instead of presenting these works in chronological order, Quatuor Modigliani divides them into five different themed groups, one for each disc, such as "Harmony" and "The Art of Song." The reasoning behind these groupings is detailed in the booklet for physical buyers, and listeners can decide how well the case is made.
