Their identification with these three works will endure through their career as an indelible calling-card.

[...] their playing was so secure, alice, richt-toned, and profoundly musical that age ceased to be an issue. [...] They seem bound for greatness all the same.

The New York Times, 14.3.2009 | Allan Kozinn
These players pay ful careful attention to dynamic detail, and their account of the Haydn was nuanced and supple. Those qualities were magnified in the Debussy Quartet (Op.10).

Daily Telegraph, 8.10.2008 | RW
[…] no doubt that here is a gifted young string quartet with something urgent and individual to communicate. This is playing that combines refinement of shading and nuance with a sense of controlled danger. Rarely has César Franck’s description of the work [Debussy quartet] as “nerve-end-music” seemed so apt. The Quatuor Ebène bring the same flair and idiomatic understanding to the Ravel (the withdrawn, spectral colourings of the slow movement precisely cought) and the neglected Fauré Quartet, a rarefied swan song from a survivor from another age. [Ravel, Debussy, Fauré]

Sunday Telegraph, 10.2008 | Michael Kennedy
Beautifully crafted performance by this young quartet. […] It [Fauré] is played here with intense concentration and flair. The performance of the Debussy is notable for its elation and rhythmic zest and for the way in which it conveys the music’s freshness and originality after more than a century. The same is true of Ravel’s even more daring and ground-breaking work.

[…] superb recording. […] A virtuosic, highly intelligent performance.

The Times, 26.9.2008 | GB
Quaturo Ebène: French String Quartets ***** “Three French masterpieces (Debussy, Fauré, Ravel) played by young musicianswith a rare degree of expressive subtlety , blended sonorities and electrifying joy. […] The CD cover shows men in black, drab against urban concrete: nothing could be farther from this great disc’s rainbow dazzle.”
