The Iuventus Quartet were really good, their technical ability and muscianship were amazing, if not, intimidating at the same time. But I see it as something to aspire to, rather than concede defeat over.I've never really listened to Dvorak and nor really heard of Janacek, but Dvorak's Piano Quintet and Janacek's 'Kreutzer' sonata are now firm favourites. Of course the recordings I got (by differents preformers) don't sound half as good as the live preformace. Worth the 10e? Oh dear God, yes.
Squeak!
