Quatuor Diotima celebrates Pierre Boulez's centenary with a recording of Livre pour quatuor, featuring the world premiere of the piece’s fourth movement. This movement was conceived in close collaboration with the members of Diotima and was completed by Philippe Manoury after Boulez's passing. This recording adds a fascinating chapter to Boulez's work in progress and serves as a fitting successor to the quartet’s acclaimed Ligeti recording from 2023.
Quatuor Diotima is one of the most in-demand chamber ensembles in the world today and has collaborated closely with several of the greatest composers of the late twentieth century. Through the lens of contemporary music, the quartet casts new light on the masterpieces of the 19th and 20th centuries.
The quartet returns to PENTATONE following their acclaimed Metamorphosis Ligeti (2023) and Bruckner & Klose String Quartets (2024), the latter of which was awarded a Jahrespreis der Schallplattenkritik.
