Shostakovich Piano Quintet | Su Yeon Kim & Quatuor Danel

Shostakovich Piano Quintet in g minor Op. 57 쇼스타코비치 피아노 5중주 Su Yeon Kim, piano Quatuor Danel Live Performance Recording 07. December 2023 Kumho Art Hall 금호아트홀 상주음악가 시리즈 (c) Kumho Cultural Foundation Quatuor Danel The Danel is known for its deeply personal interpretations of the string quartet cycles of Haydn, Beethoven, Schubert, Shostakovich, and Weinberg. Its lively and fresh vision of traditional quartet repertoire has won the Danel lavish praise from both the public and the press. In addition, the Quartet has regularly championed the string quartets of Shostakovich, and its very recent release of the complete quartet cycle which was recorded at the Gewandhaus Leipzig has already won a range of prizes and has been recognized as the quartet’s next benchmark recording. Uniquely among string quartets, the Danel has worked closely with both the late Valentin Berlinsky formerly of the Borodin Quartet as well as Irina Shostakovich to refine the deeply personal interpretations of Russian music for which the Quartet is revered in Europe. The Danel’s long personal relationship and exceptionally close work with Dmitri Shostakovich’s widow Irina informed these performances in a specific and profoundly personal way, offering a very rarely accessed glimpse into Shostakovich’s genius.
