Aug 5, 2012 | Sabine Wiedemann News Recording start of complete Beethoven cycle with the Quartetto di Cremona

In the idyllic surroundings of the Fondazione Spinola-Banna per l'arte in the vinicity of Turino the QdC is currently recording Beethoven's String Quartets Op. 95, Op.18 No. 6 and Op. 135. The recording venue being the hall of a mansion located on the rural countryside unwillingly also other sounds than Beethoven are being recorded: Nature enriches the recording sessions sometimes with surprises like singing birds, thunder or barking dogs - but hear for yourselves.... Of course this will NOT be part of the real recording, don't worry!
