Schubert EnsembleAbout
The group is passionate about the music of Gabriel Fauré and in recent years has championed the reflective and highly individual Quintets at its many concerts across the UK.
Fauré was taught by Saint-Saëns, a lifelong friend, and Fauré in his turn taught Ravel. He broke new ground: in fusing the pre-baroque modes with the traditional tonal system, he created a fluid sense of constantly shifting harmony which is inimitably his own. The fluidity is apparently effortless, but if you listen closely to his Piano Quintets you will hear great drama, tension and profound emotion, all skilfully demonstrated.
"Chamber music", wrote Fauré, "really is… true music and the most sincere expression of a genuine personality". And in his chamber music he achieved something remarkable.
