Elan QuintetAbout
The Elan Quintet was formed through the coalescence of performance experience in lyric, symphonic and chamber music of its internationally recognised members. In 2015 they began a project to record the little-known string quintets of Georges Onslow (world-premiere recordings), a series which has received critical acclaim.
Vol.1 is available on 8573600. Gramophone wrote: ‘These five players make a beguiling case for this music.’ Fanfare added: ‘The performances by the Elan Quintet are outstanding – brilliant playing all around, really.’
Vol.2 (8573689) received praise from the BBC Music Magazine: ‘Receiving their world premiere recordings, the F minor String Quintet No. 10 of 1827 and the E flat major Quintet No. 22 of 1836 are lucky to have the Elan Quintet at their service… The Elan players’ sympathy for the music smiles out of every bar’, while Vol.3 (8573887) was similarly acclaimed by Fanfare: ‘This is polished, well-balanced playing that displays a fine sensitivity for the period style.’
Onslow’s Cello Sonatas are on 8572830, of which BBC Music Magazine wrote: ‘These elegantly crafted Sonatas from 1820 combine some of the thematic rigour of Beethoven with the ornate virtuosity of Weber. These are strongly committed and highly expressive performances.’
