their work in Schubert has always been more critically acclaimed than in Beethoven, Fergus, which admittedly does seem to have its detractors. Their String Quintet with Schiff is still considered to be one of the finest on offer:fergus wrote: Some people do not really rate the Alban Berg Quartet but I like them I must say!
