Alexander Borodin composed one of the most popular pieces in the romantic quartet repertoire, probably because it is a sort of love letter dedicated to Borodin's wife Ekaterina. Dmitri Sjostakovitsj composed an autobiography in music. After twenty-five years of 'inner emigration' he allowed himself once more to be personal, even if only in words to the wise. The third composer on this recording, Mieczyslaw Weinberg, was considered a well-kept secret of the Soviet Union.
