貝爾琪亞與艾班備受國際推崇，兩支風格各異的頂尖樂團於2024起聯手在世界各地進行雙四重奏巡迴演出，呈獻孟德爾遜和安納斯古的八重奏經典。在港大欣賞這八位世界級音樂家的精湛表演前，貝爾琪亞中提琴手Krzysztof Chorzelski及艾班的小提琴手Gabriel Le Magadure將與音樂系主任蔡寬量教授對談，分享他們對室樂演奏的獨到見解。

The Belcea Quartet and Quatuor Ébène—two of today’s most acclaimed string quartets, bound by mutual admiration and friendship—embarked on their long-anticipated octet tour in 2024, showcasing Mendelssohn’s and Enescu’s masterful octets to audiences worldwide. Before their concert at HKU, violist Krzysztof Chorzelski from the Belcea Quartet and violinist Gabriel Le Magadure from Quatuor Ébène will engage in a ‘Music in Words’ conversation with Prof. Daniel Chua. They will offer insights into their approach to chamber music, both as quartets and as a unified octet.
