About This Song
About "String Quartet No. 1 in C Major, Op. 49 : Shostakovich: String Quartet No. 1 in C Major, Op. 49: I. Moderato" by Borodin Quartet
Shostakovich's First Quartet begins not with a declaration but a question. The Moderato unfolds with tender hesitance, the Borodin Quartet shaping each line like a whispered confidence. There's a youthful openness here, a calm that feels earned rather than assumed.
