“The way scents seem to transition into sounds, echoes resonate from the depths of space, and the Four [musicians] intertwining attentively, only to then grab hold vigorously and expand vivaciously — it was exhilarating.” — Süddeutsche Zeitung
Attending a concert by the Quatuor Ébène is a musical and sensual happening. For the past two decades the quartet has set standards by making familiar repertoire accessible in new ways, and by constantly seeking interaction with the audience.
In 2019 — as the first ensemble ever — it was honored with the Frankfurt Music Prize. In spring 2024, cellist Yuya Okamoto joined the quartet’s esteemed ranks, adding a new dimension.
PROGRAM:
- Beethoven – String Quartet in G Major, Op. 18, No. 2
- Britten – Three Divertimenti for String Quartet
- Brahms – String Quartet in A minor, Op. 51, No. 2
