Reviews
The Juilliard Quartet plays Beethoven and Widmann: lyrical exuberance and wild attack
Zhulla leads with a mixture of discretion and conciseness, the glimmer of her first violin repeatedly shining brightly over the tutti, only to merge with it in the next moment. Her fellow musicians tease out the distinct colors of the voices, guessing, sensing the others, it is pure listening pleasure. Beethoven, not aggressively modern, but played almost romantically. Breathless, with shimmering concentration and full of attacca, the Juilliard Quartet crowns a most interesting evening.
