French Romantic composer Benjamin Godard only wrote three string quartets, all of them generous and full of original ideas that take full advantage of the talents of the Quartet Elysee, as underlined on this recording. The uniqueness of the Elysée Quartet, celebrating its 20th anniversary with this release, lies in the confrontation and assimilation of two different schools of music: the French school and the prestigious Russian school. As the quartet shows here, these two schools are mutually enriching; they enable the blending of different ideas, the development of new dimensions in the interpretation of music and a strength of expression which has great originality.
