Two leading quartets of the modern chamber music scene perform two masterpieces of string octets with refined ensemble. The works, composed in their teenage years by prodigies Mendelssohn and Enescu, showcase youthful brilliance. Quatuor Ebene leads in Mendelssohn, and Belcea Quartet leads in Enescu. Both quartets performed these works in Japan in 2025, captivating audiences with vibrant performances. Quatuor Ebene is acclaimed for its high technical skill and adventurous activity, including jazz collaborations, and recently welcomed Japanese cellist Yuya Okamoto after founding member Raphael Merlin's departure in 2024. Belcea Quartet, led by Corina Belcea, features multinational members with diverse backgrounds and a wide-ranging repertoire. Recorded July 6-11, 2025, at Schloss Elmau, Germany.
現代の室内楽シーンをリードする2組のカルテットが弦楽八重奏曲の名曲2曲を磨き上げられたアンサンブルで聴かせる。いずれも早熟の天才と称賛されたメンデルスゾーンとエネスクがそれぞれ10代で作曲した瑞々しい作品を収録。メンデルスゾーンではエベーヌ弦楽四重奏団が、エネスクではベルチャ弦楽四重奏団が第1セクションを担当。この二大カルテットは、2025年の日本公演でエネスクとメンデルスゾーンの弦楽八重奏曲を演奏。個性と手腕が余すところなく発揮され、生命力漲る名演で聴衆を魅了した。エベーヌ弦楽四重奏団は、クラシックに加えジャズなどにも積極的に取り組み、ユニークな活動と確かな演奏技術で高く評価されている。創立メンバーの一人であるチェロのラファエル・メルランが2024年に脱退し、日本人チェロ奏者の岡本侑也が加入し大きな話題となった。ベルチャ弦楽四重奏団は、コリーナ・ベルチャを中心に多国籍なメンバーで構成。異なるバックグラウンドが一体となり、独自の音楽性を築いている。レパートリーは多岐にわたり、ハイドン、モーツァルトからバルトークなど、現在活躍中の作曲家の新作も演奏している。録音: 2025年7月6-11日、ドイツ、エルマウ城
