Info for Schubert: Octet in F Major, D. 803 & Quartettsatz, D. 703

Founded in 2007, the Edding Quartet has quickly become a reference in the interpretation of the Classical and Romantic string quartet repertoires, proposing refined, intelligent readings of these often-heard works. In 2008, the members of the Quartet, along with clarinettist Nicola Boud, bassoonist Julien Debordes, horn player Nicolas Chedmail and bass player Damien Guffroy, founded Northernlight, an ensemble, exploring the masterpieces for string and winds from the Classical and Romantic periods.

In January 2014, in Flagey’s Studio 4, in Brussels, the Edding Quartet and Northernlight recorded a programme devoted to Schubert, featuring the great Octet (D.803) - a veritable chamber symphony - and the Quartettsatz (D.703). This project is the beginning of a collaboration between the Edding Quartet and Phi, the label of Philippe Herreweghe with whom the musicians of the Edding Quartet / Northernlight often collaborate.
