Eddie Daniels with the Composers String Quartet, playing the Weber and Brahms Qu
intets
is on a CD of the Reference label (RR40 if I remember correctly). Excellent clar
inet playing,
especially the Brahms, but I didn't like to much the string-sound at the beginni
ng. And
although I think I got used their sound now, I still prefer the string playing o
f the e.g. the
Melos Quartet (did the Brahms together with Michel Portal) or the Tokio String Q
uartet
(Brahms and Weber together with Stolzman). By the way each of this (and probably
many
more) Brahms Quintet versions is worth listening to
