In this Cal Performances at Home streaming presentation, the excellent Danish String Quartet perform Schubert’s String Quartet in G major, from a live October 2021 performance.
The San Francisco Chronicle wrote about that concert, “There’s a robust, heady kind of beauty at work in the playing of the Danish String Quartet…this formidable ensemble brings a wondrous blend of precision and full-bodied athleticism”.
Tickets are free for this performance, but registration is required.
Shame they can’t play much other than badly-arranged folk music; but hey, this is what happens when you’re from a tiny country. Just getting promoted for standing slightly above the rest.
Their Prism albums contain masterful performances of some core works; you should give them a listen.

They have extraordinary ensemble and some of the best intonation of any quartet, period. Their folk arrangements are excellent, as is their playing of the standard repertoire. Such an unnecessarily mean-spirited comment.
Not even the best trolling I’ve seen in the past half-hour. You can be sillier if you work at it.
