This is a terrific CD. From Webern to John Lurie, to John Zorn´s wild "Forbidden Fruit," to a stunning rendition of Barber´s Adagio in it´s original String Quartet form, this album rocks. Okay, probably not the most appropriate description of a string quartet album, but it does--it rocks. I think this is my favorite recording of the Barber Adagio. Some challenging pieces, but for anyone that loves contemporary classical music, this is a great set.
