Overview
This 1998 Capriccio release pairs Franz Schubert’s iconic String Quartet in D minor D 810 “Der Tod und das Mädchen” with Siegfried Matthus’s contemporary quartet “Das Mädchen und der Tod” (1996). The Petersen Quartett delivers a compelling dialogue between the 19th‑century masterpiece—marked by its dramatic Allegro and haunting Andante—and Matthus’s modern reflections on mortality, blending funeral march rhythms with tender lyricism, all captured in pristine DDD stereo.
