About
Together with Prokofiev and Shostakovich, Miaskovsky made up the trinity of Soviet music in the first half of the 20th century. The 13th Quartet was his final masterpiece and in it he achieves a perfect balance of expression and rigour. The Renoir Quartet possesses all the necessary qualities for championing these luxuriant scores with brio and subtlety.
