Felix Debrueck asks for recommendations for recording of the Bartok Quartets. I first 'learned' the quartets with the first 'complete' recorded by the Juilliard Quartet, and came to love them (with some slight reservations about the First). But then came the Emersons. What loving performances these are. And lyrical where others find knots. Hope this helps. And *do* persist with them. They *do* reveal their charms over time. Scott Morrison
