The Dudok Quartet Amsterdam is forging a reputation as one of the most creative and versatile quartets of it's generation. The Guardian commented on their "lithe, lively sound and alert sense of structure and detail." The quartet play with unwound gut strings and a set of bespoke classical bows. This recording, their first for Rubicon, features the three Brahms String Quartets. They are joined by Finnish violist Lilli Maijala for the composer's String Quintet No.2.
