Nevsky String Quartet is a string quartet based in St. Petersburg, Russia. They are noted for their award-winning performances of Russian music and their performances of contemporary music. ==History and Repertoire== The Quartet, originally named the Quinten-Quartet, was founded in 1995 by students of St. Petersburg Conservatory with intensive assistance of Gleb Nikitin (dean of Orchestral Department). The idea of creation belonged to Vladimir Bistritsky (viola player). Other members of Quartet became 3-year students: Tatiana Razoumova (1st violin) and Dmitry Khrytchev (cello). Last member became 2nd violinist Dmitry Korjavko, 1st-year student. In addition to their schooling in Russia, they also studied in London, in Germany, and with members of the Prague String Quartet, the Alban Berg Quartet, and the Amadeus Quartet in Austria.〔(Nevsky String Quartet (The Quinten-Quartet), Russia, St.Petersburg )〕 The membership of the quartet has changed slightly since the Quartet's founding in 1995. The members are: Svetlana Greenfeld performed on the Northern Flowers label recording,〔"Haydn, Prokofiev, Shostakovich" compact disc, liner notes, St. Petersburg, Russia: Northern Flowers, 2005.〕 and Alexei Maslov performed on one of the Capstone recordings.〔"Music for String Quartet" compact disc, liner notes, Brooklyn, NY: Capstone Records, 2007.〕 The Quartet’s repertoire includes an emphasis on the music of Haydn (their original name—Quinten-Quartet—refers to one of Haydn’s works, the Opus 76, No 2 Quartet in d minor), Russian composers, particularly Tchaikovsky and Shostakovich, as well as music of contemporary composers, such as Rodney Waschka II, whose quartets they have premiered and recorded on Capstone Records.〔(repertoire )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nevsky String Quartet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
