Description
The Cypress String Quartet seals its 20-year legacy with its last recording, the two String Sextets by Brahms, joined by long-time collaborators violist Barry Shiffman and cellist Zuill Bailey.
The legacy of the Cypress String Quartet, which celebrated its 20th anniversary and valedictory season in 2016, is sealed by the ensemble's final recording - the two String Sextets by Johannes Brahms in which they are joined by long-time collaborators, violist Barry Shiffman and cellist Zuill Bailey. True to form, the Cypress String Quartet applied innovation to its last recording: live in front of a studio audience at Skywalker Sound Studio and recorded in both high-resolution and analogue formats.
Personnel: Cypress String Quartet, Barry Shiffman (viola), Zuill Bailey (cello)
Critical acclaim:
"A tender, deeply expressive interpretation." - The New York Times (on Schubert's String Quintet)
"Arresting clarity of sound...among the most impressive I have heard...[combining] the utmost scrupulousness and seriousness with a sense of discovery." - Stereophile
