Nielsen's 4 quartets all come from fairly early in his career (the last is from around the time of his 3rd Symphony), so they don't provide a creative overview of his entire adult life the way Bartok's quartets do. But, they do offer the picture of a young composer spreading his creative wings–and frankly, are full of terrific music. This is the best set available with robust playing and the usual high-quality sound offered by BIS.
