Great performances 13 April 2007
By JP Nightingale - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
I'm a little surprised by the last reviewer's dismissiveness. These are really first rate recordings with quartet no 1 and the invigorating Souvenir de Florence standing out in particular. The playing is muscular and deeply felt throughout - sure it may not be perfect but that, somehow, is not the point. Don't take my word for it though, have a listen yourself! These are widely loved recordings and you should not take one person's word for it!

Tchaikovsky String Quartets 25 May 2007
By George Sand - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This recording of Tchaikovsky's three String Quartets by the Borodin Quartet (including the incomparable late cellist Mstislav Rostropovich) is superb in every way. If you're looking for a recording, this is it!

Inconsistent 20 Mar 2005
By B. Thomason - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
The Borodin's recording of the Shostakovich quartets is the historical benchmark performance. This recording of Tchaikovsky's is sadly not as well prepared. The quartet is out of tune at several points throughout the set, and at some points the energy and intensity lag. Other spots are incredibly exciting and come off very effectively, though in my opinion you'd be better off finding a more contemporary recording.
