This is the most comprehensive collection ever recorded: the Leipzig Quartet have achieved legendary status with all Franz Schubert’s string quartets and fragments, string trios and the famous Trout Quintet with Christian Zacharias.

Numerous fragments and early works provide deep insights into Schubert’s compositional development throughout his lifetime. Precisely this juxtaposition with great works like the Trout, Rosamunde, and Death and the Maiden make this 10- CD collector's edition so appealing.
