The Budapest String Quartet and George Szell
Great Performances, Vol. 1
BRIDGE 9062
Reviews:
“A bonus on this disc is part of an interview that Szell gave, talking about himself and his acoustic recordings. ‘I was a completely finished musician at the age of 12’, he matter-of-factly states. I believe him.” - American Record Guide
“The disc is a major historical documentation of the best of the best. Highest recommendation.” - inTune
“Bridge has inaugurated a series of even greater scope from the archives of the Library of Congress. The gem of the first batch of releases is a pair of Brahms and Schumann piano quintets from the mid-1940’s, with the Budapest String Quartet and George Szell as soloist.” - The New York Times
