Nach begeisterter Zustimmung für ihre beiden Einspielungen mit den »Preußischen Quartetten 4-9« legt das Pleyel Quartett Köln nun die Streichquartette 1-3 von Ignaz Pleyel vor. Diese »Preußischen Quartette« erfreuten sich zu seinen Lebzeiten einer besonders großen Beliebtheit und vermitteln ein deutliches Bild der Vielseitigkeit des Komponisten auf kammermusikalischem Sektor. Konzertante Episoden – verteilt in einem vernünftigen Gleichgewicht auf die vier Instrumente – spielten für Pleyel die dominante Rolle, worin sich die Neigung zu einem deutlicher an Italien orientierten Idiom spiegelte. Diese Impulskraft entstammt der Eigenständigkeit seiner Art zu komponieren, gerade auch seinem Lehrer Haydn gegenüber.

With his very own “mysterious seductive power and legendary elegance” (Le Monde), Claudio Abbado opened for the last time the LUCERNE FESTIVAL in the summer of 2013. Only a few months later, the world had to bid farewell to a monumental artist, humanist, great conductor and orchestra founder. Even in the concert itself, documented here, lived a moment of farewell, as the three great works performed tell of the transience of life. The centerpiece of the Eroica is the funeral march revealing “abysses of shattering dimension” - an “intense experience” (Neue Zürcher Zeitung). This record, the last audio-visual documentation of his work, captures once again the extraordinary atmosphere of “vibrant emotionality” that always emerged when Abbado created music with his “orchestra of friends”.
