Interesting! Of the three, Alfred Boskovsky was unknown to me.
So I strumbled the in the collection and... found a record where he played in the Vienna Octet. A very nice recording of Kretzer's Septet op 62.
I uploaded the 1952 record here:

For "non-Americans", the complete lp can be downloaded (free!) at:

That's a totally different style then Kell!

I'm curious what your ideas are about this recording...

Greetings,
Rolf

Beautiful typical "Wiener Klang", its so beautiful, the sound blends so well with horn, strings etc. Great.
I heard other of his recording too, the Baermann Adagion and Brahms and Mozart Quintet, I like it too. But I like Alfred Prinz's(also ex-principal of VPO) sound a little bit more.

Thanks! That's a relief because someone gave the video only one star... :(

Is he related to willy Bokovsky? A brother?

In a word, yes!
