Mit einem herausfordernden Programm aus Klassik und Moderne erspielte sich das Juilliard String Quartet im Stadttheater Fürth tiefen Eindruck.

De Haydn à la Grande Fugue beethovénienne en passant par Britten, le quatuor français a livré une démonstration de virtuosité collective pour ouvrir son ultime année en résidence à Radio France.

Renouvelés par l'arrivée de Charlotte Saluste-Bridoux (ex-membre du Quatuor Confluence), les Chiaroscuro ont livré une très belle lecture du Quatuor K.421 de Mozart avant de montrer leurs limites dans Beethoven.

Avec le premier des quatuors « Razoumovski » et l'opus 130 suivi de la Grande Fugue, le Quatuor Ébène marque d'emblée les esprits avec une interprétation sans concession.

In an expertly considered programme, the Berlin-based ensemble brought together classical revolutionaries with modern homage to shine fascinating light on the form.

Energy and rage in Beethoven and van Dijk from the Signum Quartet at the Festival Printemps des Arts de Monte-Carlo.

Bei Mozart und Auszügen aus Bachs Kunst der Fuge präsentiert das Quartett harmonische, eigenständige Interpretationen, bei Beethoven ist das Ensemble erwartungsgemäß deutlich mehr gefordert.

The fugue made an interesting subject for the Brodsky Quartet’s concert at St Georges. The programme delved into the fugue’s cross over between eras, from Baroque, all the way to early expressionism.

Two of chamber music's most monumental works given powerfully physical and visceral performances by the Quatuor Ébène and Gautier Capuçon.

The Emerson String Quartet played Haydn with poised humour, and brought warmth and strength to Ravel.  Their Beethoven had sadness, rage, violence and profound depth. 

The Pacifica Quartet, now in its third year of residency at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, has the formidable task of taking up the role occupied by the Guarnieri Quartet, which played there for 43 of its 45 years. The Pacifica is relatively young, a year or so shy of its tenth birthday, but holds the promise of a venerable ensemble in the making, with chops and class to prove it.

The Wigmore Hall on July 13th was The Jupiter Quartet’s only UK appearance on their America-based Summer tour. They used the opportunity to showcase the innovations which occurred within the String Quartet repertoire through the twentieth century , ending with a homage to the form’s Classical peak.
