The "name your price" download option on the Web site is an interesting alternative to purchasing the Schulhoff CD.Axel Feldheimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12517904558156089265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17709835.post-42405331048894776282010-02-04T09:52:14.066-08:002010-02-04T09:52:14.066-08:00Axel,

I wanted to let you know that the Cypress has recorded both the Higdon and the Schulhoff and both are available on our website: www.cypressquartet.com <br /><br />Thanks again for coming out to hear the Cypress Quartet at the Rex.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06695238020398091405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17709835.post-74917381930911083822010-01-21T22:32:39.661-08:002010-01-21T22:32:39.661-08:00Yes, we must see you at one of the salons, Mr. Mar...Yes, we must see you at one of the salons, Mr. Marcher. The events are short, one hour, but an excellent value because of the intimacy of the venue. Regulars arrive early to buy a class of wine at the bar & then bring it into the room.<br /><br />Mr. Gilen: Perhaps Schulhoff is one of those composers who needs sympathetic interpreters to really work. The Cypress Quartet certainly convinced me. The Five Pieces were quite accessible & even humorous.Axel Feldheimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12517904558156089265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17709835.post-29783530537549695372010-01-21T14:01:47.927-08:002010-01-21T14:01:47.927-08:00Erwin Schulhoff is one of the composers Anne-Sofie...Erwin Schulhoff is one of the composers Anne-Sofie von Otter focused on for her 'Theresienstadt' project about composers who perished in WW2 concentration camps. I didn't really care for the music that much, but his personal circumstances make the music compelling nonetheless.Immanuel Gilenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04422265000447253768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17709835.post-33207447834357699452010-01-21T12:37:49.474-08:002010-01-21T12:37:49.474-08:00The Cypress String Quartet are great advocates for...The Cypress String Quartet are great advocates for living composers.
