Info zu Beethoven Around the World: The Complete String Quartets

»Ein Streichquartett, das sich mühelos in eine Jazzband verwandeln kann« titelte einst die New York Times über das Quatour Ébène. Was zunächst als Zerstreuungsübung von vier jungen Musikstudenten begann, steht heute sinnbildlich für den frischen Zugang zu Tradition und Moderne des Quartetts. Und genau das brachte ihnen 2004 den Sieg beim renommierten ARD Musikwettbewerb ein. Es sollte der Beginn einer internationalen Karriere sein, in deren Verlauf das französische Quartett viele Preise, darunter mehrere ECHO Klassik Verleihungen gewann.

Das „Quatuor Ébène“, eines der besten Streichquartette, ist vielfach preisgekrönt und wird weltweit gefeiert. Es begeistert ein wachsendes und gerade auch jüngeres Musikpublikum.

Das Quartett stellt die Jahre 2019 und 2020 unter den Titel „Beethoven around the World“.

Ihre Welttournee führt das Quartett mit rund 40 Konzerten in 18 Ländern der Erde (Beginn April 2019) – die insgesamt sieben Reisen in alle Kontinente werden mit einem Dokumentarfilm begleitet und in sieben live Alben aller Beethoven-Quartette dokumentiert. Im Jubiläumsjahr 2020 bringt das Quatuor Ébène den kompletten Quartett - Zyklus auf verschiedenen herausragenden Bühnen zur Aufführung, u.a. in der New Yorker Carnegie Hall. Verschiedene Auftritte sind in Deutschland geplant.
