Borodin String Qtt 2

I only have one disc of Borodin, his Symphonies 1 & 2. Honestly, I'm with Brownsfan - Borodin is somewhat obscure, and definitely isn't a name I would search for actively with regards to chamber music.

I will, however, look for your subject disc - if I find it, I'll give it a listen.

Ptss: got a copy of the EMI recording you mention on silver disc headed my way. I'll give it a whirl and let you know what I think to continue this discourse.

Ptss - received the disc several days ago, but hadn't the chance to really sit down and enjoy the recording over a cup of coffee (work schedule).

I did take it for a casual spin, and can comment briefly on the recording quality - it is surprisingly good. The width of the soundstage and the care taken in positioning and distancing the mics really adds depth to the overall presentation.

More listening this weekend, where I can better settle in on the music - I'll have more comments then.
