<description>[Machine Translation] The Ebene String Quartet&#39;s definitive 2CD album of selected popular pieces from Beethoven&#39;s Complete String Quartets is now available as an SACD hybrid disc. *Only the Japanese version of the composition is available. Around the world&#34; is a project by the Ebene Quartet to record Beethoven&#39;s string quartets live in seven cities (Philadelphia, Vienna, Tokyo, Sao Paulo, Melbourne, Nairobi, and Paris) to celebrate the 250th anniversary of Beethoven&#39;s birth in 2020. The project was extremely ambitious, recording all the pieces live in seven cities (Philadelphia, Vienna, Tokyo, Saint Paul, Melbourne, Nairobi, and Paris). This June 2026, the Ebene Quartet will perform Beethoven&#39;s complete string quartets at the 40th anniversary of Suntory Hall. To commemorate their visit to Japan, the quartet will release a Japanese edition of selected popular pieces from the complete string quartets! Included are the Rasumovsky Set &amp; No. 13 (with Grand Fugue), recorded in Vienna and Tokyo. Recorded in Vienna, the capital of music, Nos. 7 and 8 are a piece that combines Ebene&#39;s unique singing spirit with a sense of speed. Nos. 9 and 13 (with Grand Fugue) were recorded live at Suntory Hall, the venue of his tour in Japan in 2026. It may be said that the performance was further sharpened by the concentration peculiar to Japanese audiences.</description>
