Notes & Reviews:

Fauré's chamber music is here performed by nine leading French-born musicians - violinist Renaud Capuçon and cellist Gautier Capuçon, the talented brothers who were featured on ABC's Nightline, violist Gérard Caussé, pianist Michel D'Alberto, award-winning string quartet Quatuor Ebène - and an honorary Frenchman, US-born, Paris-trained pianist Nicholas Angelich. Angelich and the Capuçon brothers have established themselves as a much sought-after performing trio, and Quatuor Ebène's 2009 recording of Debussy and Ravel's chamber music won numerous awards, including Gramophone's Record of the Year. The four CDs in this set comprise works for two, three, four and five instruments and span the composer's career from early works, influenced by his teacher Saint-Saëns, to the more rarefied compositions of his later years.

"It is music that, as violinist Renaud Capuçon says in an introduction to this superb set, he and his cellist brother Gautier have played throughout their careers, and such familiarity with music that gives up its expressive secrets and intimate thematic connections reluctantly, pays dividends in every performance here...it's a real treat to hear chamber-music playing of such assurance and enquiring intelligence." -The Guardian

"This set has top-flight casting from among the most gifted young musicians of the day. Their sensibility in Fauré’s chamber music can be appreciated in all manner of subtleties...with the Quatuor Ebène supreme in the String Quartet." -The Daily Telegraph
