This one:

Thanks, but I'm not fond of this one, misses some tension which makes this music so bloody great

Hmmm...seems plenty tense to me! Each to his own, I guess.

I really like the Talich Quartet's version - I have the La Dolce Volta label.

Also the Janáček Quartet's version - which was included in the 'Janáček Quartet: Complete Recordings' set on DG. I found the version on YT below:

The Talichs did some great stuff with Mozart quartets.

The Talichs did some great stuff with Mozart quartets.

You know when I first got their complete box set, I thought they sounded overly 'thick'. But over the past few years of going back to them, I have come to really like the sound. The recording is excellent sound quality wise. Still unsure about their Beethoven SQs though.

On the Mozart quartets, I recently came across this gorgeous recording by the Prague String Quartet on my streaming service.

I'd only heard their Dvorak cycle. Currently going through their Martinu record.

Very nice Mozart quartets in this great box, although it's hard not to listen to Quatuor Mosaiques' Mozart when I'm in the mood for Mozart's SQ..

I like this pianist..

Talich's early Mozart Qts are excellent.

My references for the LvB quartets are still the Italiano, Berg, Prazak, and Takacs. So many good ones....
