Immerse yourself in the captivating world of French chamber music with the Quatuor Via Nova's latest release, "Debussy, Ravel & Roussel: Quatuors à cordes." This exquisite collection, set to release on December 2, 2022, under the prestigious Warner Classics label, showcases the ensemble's mastery of three iconic string quartets that span the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
The album opens with Claude Debussy's String Quartet in G Minor, Op. 10, a work that blends impressionistic harmonies with classical forms. The Quatuor Via Nova brings out the subtle nuances and vibrant energy of each movement, from the animated first to the passionate finale.
Next, the ensemble tackles Maurice Ravel's String Quartet in F Major, M. 35. Known for its lyrical melodies and rhythmic vitality, this quartet is a cornerstone of the chamber music repertoire. The Quatuor Via Nova's interpretation is both precise and expressive, capturing the essence of Ravel's unique style.
