Flury Richard - Chamber Music, Vol. 1 - String Quar

Facts The exploration of the music of the Swiss composer Richard Flury (1896-1967) on Toccata Classics now turns to his chamber output, with this first recording of his String Quartets Nos. 1 and 4. Flury was himself a gifted violinist, and these works - written for personal pleasure and for musician friends - were composed with an intimate familiarity with the medium. In the fourteen years between these two quartets, Flury's musical language consolidated, from the early foray into mild modernism heard in No. 1 into the rich, late-Romantic aesthetic of No. 4.
