Description: Although known primarily as a double-bass virtuoso and composer for that instrument, Bottesini also wrote 11 string quartets. These three, dating from 1858, show a Mediterranean warmth and a native, Italian melodic style, especially in the aria-like slow movements while the outer movements and scherzos are bright, sunlit and cheerful. Quartetto Elisa. Original 1998 release (05-044).
