      Excellent set, got it in the original 1974 LP-version with excellent book included - an extract of which is in this CD-set (It's only missing the after 1973 published Schönberg and Webern quartet works).
      It's now cheapo on Brilliant (Beef oven and I paid a bit more I'm afraid )

        Wow! I'd love to have that set on LP!

        I bought the CDs about 25 years ago and paid about £25 IIRC. As you say, much cheaper now on Brilliant.

        The booklet is really good, 92 pages in English.

          Yes - to get a book of this quality on the 3VS String Quartets along with these terrific performances would still be a bargain at £25 even today.

            I bought an LP set from Gramex (then in York Rd) in the early 1980s. I suspect it was before 1985 - probably before 1984 (the birth of a daughter is a good deterrent to record-buying).

                        It's in Apple Music, but I don't think it turns up if Fumagalli is used to search. However, ""Adalberto Maria Riva" should find it..

                        Here it is in Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/track/7dSqmFZ35wl96Xa8h9IFxz

                              Hiya Beefy,

                              I'm not sure how far Messiaen's 'Vingt regards sur l' enfant Jesus' is off the beaten track? I see it programmed from time to time and it has been recorded quite a few times. Now it was the piano music of say Roger Sacheverell Coke or Algernon Ashton then I would be in accord.

                                Good afternoon Stan

                                I agree, how far is indeed moot.
