The Streichquartett der Staatskapelle Berlin began its life in 2017, on the judicious advice of Daniel Barenboim. Building on its familiarity with the world of opera, the quartet's first album highlights three operatic heavyweights. Verdi's string quartet, his only surviving chamber music work, was composed in 1873, while Tchaikovsky's 1st quartet is from 1871. Puccini's Crisantemi (a flower associated with Italian funeral ceremonies) is dedicated to the memory of amadeo I of Spain.
