GRAMMY Award-winning Pacifica Quartet presents a landmark recording featuring the Erich Wolfgang Korngold’s complete string quartets and rarely heard chamber works. The album traces the composer’s remarkable evolution from a prodigy of post-imperial Vienna to a pioneering film composer in Hollywood. “It’s amazing to see how well the music is written,” says Pacifica Quartet cellist Brandon Vamos. “It has emotion that really reaches a listener , and we hope people will realize the greatness of this music.” Collaborating with pianist Orion Weiss, violist Milena Pájaro-van de Stadt, and cellist Eric Kim, the program includes the String Quartets Nos. 1–3, Piano Quintet in E Major, and String Sextet in D Major.
