GRAEWE, GEORGE QUARTET - Passing Scopes (Sealed) (CD)

This concert recording by the GEORG GRAEWE QUARTET from October 1998 at Amsterdam's Stedelijk Museum has just recently re-emerged from Graewe's private archives. The group's performance was recorded by Ernst Reijseger and was transferred and mastered by Martin Siewert in his Vienna studio. The quartet was active from 1997 - 2001. So far there was only one CD available, their debut on OKKA Disk "Melodie und Rhythmus" from 1997. The cover features original photos by Francesca Patella and liner notes by John Corbett: "I was present at the first meetings. Over the course of a few years, I was able to hear the quartet in many contexts, at home and abroad. It was beyond. Beyond beyond."
