Ravel: String Quartet in F Major: Tres lent. As expected their performance of the Shostakovich String Quartet No. 8 is as fine as any performance on record. The quartet as a piece of music is a masterpiece and the Borodin Quartet reveals even more of the intricacies of the interplay of Shostakovich's at times occult interweaving of themes than usual. It is simply a breathtaking, anguished, pulsating performance. But the same can be said of the Borodin String Quartet No. 2 despite all its ties to the musical theater ('Kismet') that for some may make it seem like a minor work. Quite the opposite is true

These recordings will likely always remain the standard for Shostakovich's chamber repertoire because the Borodins were so focused on the Russian quartet literature and so little of anything they played by one composer approached the immediate, mature fullness of Shostakovich's quartets from the first to the last. And they played the music with unflagging intensity. Over the six CDs, it's a fascinating exercise to hear the development of compositional elements between the first (1935) and 15th (1974, the year before his death) quartets.
