The Golden Oldies title and 50th Birthday Celebration subtitle might lead one to expect a compilation of earlier recordings on this 2023 release by the Brodsky Quartet, which amazingly still has two of its original members. However, all of the recordings are newly made, and the arrangements, mostly by members of the quartet, are fresh ones. So these are short pieces of the encore type, but they succeed in avoiding a greatest-hits feel and conveying more of what a really good encore does, namely to suggest the hidden recesses and secrets of a repertory. The album features short works by composers the Brodsky Quartet has championed in the past, including Shostakovich, Debussy, and Beethoven, who makes an appearance with the familiar first movement of the Piano Sonata No. 14 in C sharp minor, Op. 27, No. 2 ("Moonlight"). That is not a piece one would think could be transferred effectively to the string quartet medium, but the arrangement by violist Paul Cassidy is elegant. That points to another strength of the release: the album highlights the Brodsky's independent programming streak, even in so conventional a medium as the encores album. Scott Joplin's tango Solace is another work that one would hardly think of for a project like this, and it is lovely. There is just one contemporary work, Isidora Žebeljan's An Intimate Letter from the Judean Desert, effectively placed at the end. This is not only a celebration for Brodsky Quartet fans but also a decent introduction to the group's work for those interested in this venerable British ensemble, and it landed on classical best-seller charts in the spring of 2023.
