The Ébène Quartet (French : Quatuor Ébène ) is a French string quartet based in Boulogne-Billancourt , France.
History [ edit ]
Quatuor Ébène was founded in 1999 at the Boulogne-Billancourt Conservatory in France. The group first came to international attention in 2004 when it won first prize in the string quartet category at the ARD International Music Competition , also taking the Audience Prize, two prizes for interpretation, and the Karl Klinger Foundation Prize.[1] The next year, the group won the Belmont Prize from the Forberg-Schneider Foundation.[2] In 2006, Quatuor Ébène released its first recording, a live recording of three Haydn quartets, to critical acclaim. In 2009, BBC Music Magazine named the quartet "Newcomer of the Year" for its recording of the Ravel , Fauré , and Debussy string quartets.[3] The same album won the group Recording of the Year at the 2009 Classic FM Gramophone Awards .[4] In 2010, the group was named Ensemble of the Year at the Victoires de la Musique Classique .[5] NPR named Ébène's album Fiction one of its 50 favorite albums of 2011, describing the quartet's performance as brimming with "silky smoothness and Gallic finesse".[6]
Musical style [ edit ]
Quatuor Ébène is known for its versatility and performs a variety of genres, such as classical music , contemporary music , jazz , and crossover . Beyond its classical repertoire, some of the group's most popular performances have been crossover, such as a rendition of the soundtrack of Pulp Fiction , arrangements of classic Beatles hits, and a jazz vocal/instrumental arrangement of "Someday My Prince Will Come " from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs .
New York Times music critic Allan Kozinn highlighted the group's versatility, describing the group as "a string quartet that can easily morph into a jazz band".[7]
