Kolisch String Quartet. Led by Arnold Schoenberg's brother-in-law Rudolf Kolisch with members of the former Lener String Quartet (Jeno Lener and Benar Heifetz), The Kolisch Quartet was a key element in furthering the cause of composers Schoenberg and Alban Berg and in fact, the whole Second Viennese School. A lonely road at times, The Kolish Quartet were one of the great virtuoso ensembles who combined the world of the adventuresome with the world of the traditional, as is evidence by this 1938 recording for Victor (DM-407) of the B-Flat Major k.589 String Quartet of Mozart. In a way, it was recordings like these that made the private and subscription recordings of new works possible - and the Kolisch Quartet were able to straddle both worlds and serve both equally well.
