Marjorie Kransberg-Talvi

A short entry but I have been trying to figure out the name of the Beethoven quartet that Heifetz coaches (on video) in his master class (he plays 1st violin in opus 18. No. 5 but only coaches the other one) so I started googling and came across the blog Magic Moments of violinist and pedagogue Marjorie Kransberg-Talvi. This is a delightful blog and includes Youtubes of her fine playing. I appreciate her astute observations on the state of the arts. Take a look.

In the meantime , embarrassed that I don't know all the Beethoven quartets by hearing, I will take any tips.
