A fine Mercury recording from the late 40's featuring the the K 499 and K 575 quartets of Mozart performed by the "second" edition of the famed Roth Quartet.
I like the playing here very much. It combines elegance with unpretentiousness yet has a degree of earthiness to it. In other words, its not prissy, prim or too careful.
The Roth Quartet, in both "editions" was a fine ensemble and it was blessed with consistency in presentation while possessing a wide and urgent repertoire. I'm glad I found this old lp.
