This splits the first and later movements over the two discs. Unacceptable to me.

Definitely a downside - but not a reason to deprive yourself of this excellent performance .... by no means being a download guy, but in this case it helps .....

i purchased this set some time back and was also disappointed in the split over two discs. Perhaps if I had known that in advance I would not have bought it.

The performance is certainly very good, but I have other very fine performances of the Schubert String Quintet.

I believe the peach of this release is No 15 .... unfortunately ...

I'll try the Alban Berg. The Busch is an old mono recording with out of tune sounding strings, right?

I first heard the G major quartet in Woody Allen's Crimes and Misdemeanors. I wonder what recording Woody used.

Not sure about The Busch having out of tune strings, but this is a recording from the 30`s so the sound is dated .... but as said, they really turn uo a storm ....

Regarding Woody Allen's Crimes and Misdemeanors I believe these outtakes are from the Juilliard String Quartet performances .....
