About
Out of the five string quartets by the composer only three are known today, and appear on this new recording from the leading Polish label, DUX. Out of interest it is known that the String Quartet No.1 was composed in 1928 and premiered by the Roth, and No.2 four year later and premiered by the Indis Quartet.

The ARC Ensemble brings out [the Passacaille’s] depths, just as the players are on scintillating form elsewhere…a highlight is the post-Ravelian piano Sonatina, played with a light touch by David Louie…this is fascinating music
