Jodie Devos/Juliette Hurel/Emmanuel Ceysson/Quatuor Voce(Alpha)Chamber works from the beginning and end of the composer’s career combine with a modern echo in this elegant collection Chamber works from the beginning and end of Debussy’s career – his only string quartet, composed in 1893, and the Sonata for flute, viola and harp, from 1915 – provide the points of reference in this collection from the Quatuor Voce, with the soprano Jodie Devos, flautist Juliette Hurel and harpist Emmanuel Ceysson. Juxtaposed as they are here, those two scores underline just how far Debussy travelled stylistically in less than a quarter of a century. Though the composition of his quartet coincided with work on the Prélude à l’Après-midi d’un Faune, the score that first announced him as a modernist, it is a far more conservative, almost backward-looking piece.

Wigmore Hall Salvatore Sciarrino: Sei quartetti brevi (1967-92) Philippe Hurel: Entre les lignes(2017, UK premiere)Mark Andre: iv 13 (Twelve miniatures) (2014-17, UK premiere)Sciarrino: Cosa resta (2016, UK premiere) Jake Arditti (countertenor) Irvine Arditti Ashot Sarkissian (violins) Ralf Ehlers (viola) Lucas Fels (cello) First, some early music – certainly by the Arditti Quartet’s standards: Sciarrino’s Sei quartetti brevi, the first of which was written in 1967, dedicated to Franco Evengelisti, added to with five further pieces in 1991 and 1992. Perhaps such a conception inevitably brings to mind Webern, at least for those of us with a centre of gravity in still earlier music, but it was only really in the second piece (that which was written first, in 1967) that he came strongly to mind in musical terms, at least in performances such as these, typically free of nostalgia. That intimate post-Webern riot – […]
