Zemlinsky Quartet


Webern summed up the evolution of each of Zemlinsky's four quartets with a single word: Aufbruch"" (departure) corresponded to No. 1, Op.4 and getting out from under Brahms's shadow ""Wende"" (the turning point) for No. 2, Op.15, an Expressionistic block of gigantic Mahlerian proportions and a single motto theme ""Reduktion"" of the epic dimension but not of the burlesque, sardonic grin in No. 3, Op.19 ""Maskenspiel"" (mask game) for No. 4, Op.25, a 'lyric suite' in homage to Alban Berg, imbued with Schubertian clarity and transcended Classicism.
