[Machine Translation] The Welsh String Quartet's "Beethoven Complete Works 2" includes Beethoven Nos. 2 & 12. The first collection of Beethoven No. 2 and No. 12 was highly acclaimed for its "pure sound and contemplative performance". This album includes No. 16, the last work in the cycle, which is a "spiritual liberation," and No. 8 in the middle period style, full of intense passion. Wales' approach is one of reverence for the heights of the music, yet unabashedly seeks to get to the heart of the work. The music itself rises from the detailed playing.
