Takács Quartet and Garrick Ohlsson

Few ensembles approach the standard repertoire with the kind of live-wire intensity the Takács Quartet consistently musters, which means that none of its concerts amount to mere routine. Here the group opens with Brahms's Quartet in A minor and Haydn's "Sunrise" Quartet, and closes with Brahms's Piano Quintet in a rendition with distinguished pianist Garrick Ohlsson.
