Quatuor Ebène

The winners of the 2009 Gramophone Awards, and picked today by Axel Ross as one of the best recordings in 2009 for their smashing "Quatuors à corde" by Ravel, Debussy, Fauré



this quartet is not playing often in Paris (to say the least). If you check out the sched on their web-site you'll see that they will only be performing in Paris at the Chatelet theater, one morning (sic!) in April of 2010. Yes, you guessed it right, France is often bizarre. But hey, we love it for other reasons. ;)

Instead of prattling about how wonderful Quatuor Ebène are, here is a cool video of their take on the Pulp Fiction theme, as an encore at the 2008 Verbier Festival (video from medici.tv). Enjoy!
