Kabalevsky: String Quartets Nos. 1 & 2

Dmitri Kabalevsky, like his close contemporaries Shostakovich and Shebalin, belongs to the first generation of Russian composers who can be considered exclusively as products of the Soviet era. Whilst Shostakovich, Prokofiev and Stravinsky indisputably occupy the front rank in the history of Russian 20th century music (though of the three, only Shostakovich never left Russia, and consequently experienced in full measure the turmoil of post-revolutionary 'reconstruction'), Kabalevsky was one of the more important representatives of the second rank. Alto is proud to bring back recordings of Kabalevsky's First and Second Quartet performed by The Glazunov Quartet.
