From the peak of the classical era to the hectic years of the 20th Century, the string quartet has established itself as the genre to which composers entrust their most innovative ideas. The Modigliani Quartet highlights three masterpieces of dazzling originality, each of which bears witness to a pivotal moment in the lives of their creators: Haydn, Mozart, and Bartók. The Paris-based Modigliani Quartet has been praised for its “balance, transparency, symphonic comprehension, and confident style” (Süddeutsche Zeitung).
