Here, in one fell swoop, is evidence of Jeremy Gill’s mastery of the form. Capriccio is one of the most remarkable opuses in chamber music this year. The cumulative impact of its individual pieces is quite breathtaking, some of which clearly occupy the bluest part of the flame of the art. The Parker Quartet certainly do them justice by setting the bar very high, with their astoundingly fresh, supple readings of the pieces (listen to #3). I would not be surprised if they scoop up a clutch of awards and extremely disappointed if they did not. The four virtuosos play with visceral energy, even high-octane playing when the pieces call for allegro (playing), while adding an extra degree of rusticity, which isn’t inappropriate.
