The Berlin Philharmonic String Quintet has become one of the best ensembles in its field, gaining a world-wide reputation. Here they give a sublime interpretation of Dvořák’s String Quintet. It was recorded in the small hall of the Muziekgebouw in Eindhoven, which gives the ideal combination of intimacy and sonority for small string ensembles.
