Eliot Quartett- Meyer & Shostakovich: DSCH & beyond (CD)
In their latest GENUIN album, the Eliot Quartett pays homage to one of the 20th century's greatest composers. Shostakovich's String Quartets Nos. 3 and 8 are paired with "Au-dela d'une absence" by Krzysztof Meyer, a poignant tribute from a composer who personally knew the Russian master. The Eliot Quartett, one of the leading ensembles on the international stage, is dedicating itself to an in-depth exploration of Shostakovich's oeuvre in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of his passing. Their album, performed with the highest artistry, stands as a powerful testament to this endeavor: playing that is clear, transparent, and yet profoundly intense, bringing both Shostakovich's originals and Meyer's touching and personal homage to life.
