“…life-affirming playing: charged with an energy and a sense of excited discovery.."
Music Web International
“...such powerful playing, in total empathy with the composer’s idiosyncratic style...
Everything feels alert and vibrantly alive.”
Strad Magazine
"the Benyounes Quartet, playing Debussy’s String Quartet [...] The players have somehow grasped the core of the work, its surging colours – its scintillating detail, its sensual harmonies were all tinged with a brittle coolness…I’ve rarely heard such a compelling live performance of this work.”
BBC Music Magazine
"Energetic playing here from the Benyounes; the Bartok and Beethoven blister, while the Debussy is an animated delight in their hands."
Seen & Heard International
"Tailleferre’s Quartet is delicate and brief, lasting barely ten minutes, but in the hands of the Benyounes it was utterly enchanting."
