Agreed. I find that the Tatrai, followed by the Hungarian Quartet (now
on DG Originals) provide the most idiomatic interpretation of these
masterpieces. At the other end of the interpretive range, I would place
the Tokyo String Quartet (first recording for DG, now reissued by MHS),
followed by the Emerson as providing very muscular and incisive
interpretations.
