Fauré Piano Quartet

Friday, January 29, 7:30 p.m.

The musicians founded the Fauré Piano Quartet in 1995 taking on his name out of appreciation for the composer's two piano quartet pieces. It did not take the quartet long to win top prizes and awards for their interpretations at prestigious international chamber music competitions including the Deutsche Schallplattenpreis and the Parkhouse Award in Great Britain.

"There is no such thing as perfection, but the Fauré Piano Quartet is dangerously close to challenging this notion. The group's success is each member's inborn musicianship, the sense of friends making music together sublimely and perceptively, and the musicians' collective ability to say so much in the most natural way. The Fauré Quartet has been beautifully recorded too, with a mix of immediacy, space and judicious balance between the foursome who play as equals and who care deeply about what they do and about each other."
