Additional Information

One of the world’s most sought-after and celebrated string quartets, the renowned Quatuor Diotima will make its Quebec debut with a concert at the Saint-Alphonse-Rodriguez church as part of the 47th edition of the Festival de Lanaudière. With an artistic signature characterized by its ease in both the classical and contemporary repertoires, and by its commitment to creating links between these musical currents, audiences are invited on July 22 to hear the most beautiful pages of quartet music, including Maurice Ravel’s famous Quartet in F major, accompanied by two more contemporary works by Szymanowski and Korngold.

PAN M 360 collaborator Alexandre Villemaire spoke to Léo Marillier, the quartet’s violinist, about the concert program, the quartet’s identity and its relationship with contemporary music in all its nuances and history.
