@violin12395 Remember, as Anna Russell observed, the more out of tune it is, the more contemporary it sounds.
The opening of this work should startle the listener, even shock him or her, but I don't think Barber lived THIS long.
The real disappointment for me, however, was the tempo. Slow is good for the adagio, but the bracketing movements should be taken at a contrasting pace.
Still, it's good to find a group that acknowledges that there is more to Barber's quartet than the Adagio.

@5610winston Yes the tempo is quite suprising. I played this entire quartet and I absolutely hated the second movement though...
