Kelemen Quartet

Recorded in the Esterházy Palace in Eisenstadt, the Kelemen Quartet perform Béla Bartók’s String Quartets No. 3 and No. 4 from this beautiful baroque palace in Austria. “The six quartets are the essence of Bartók’s œuvre, with the form playing the same role for him as for Beethoven or Haydn. And I live here, in the context in which these works originated, and Bartók’s music is indeed my mother tongue,” says Barnabás Kelemen.

Recorded in Haydn Hall, Schloss Esterházy.
