For some people, the expression “no strings attached” sounds next to impossible. That’s the case with the renowned Debussy String Quartet, who will perform in Moscow on November 28.
The sought-after French musicians give over 60 concerts a year, taking their violins, a viola and cello to Europe, Asia and North America – the latchstring is always out for them!
This time around Christophe Collette, Dorian Lamotte, Vincent Deprecq and Alain Brunier will bring chamber music to Russia’s Moscow Conservatory.
The Lyon-based Debussy String Quartet will turn 20 years old next year, but they are never tired of sharing their expertise with music lovers.
Their repertoire spans from Ravel and Debussy to Schubert, from Mozart and Brahms. And still, the Debussy Quartet is recognized for their passion for the French repertoire.
In addition to the busy tour schedule, the musicians teach aspiring talent and perform at the Strolling Strings Festival in the south of France, along with fellow musicians.
