Syntonia stands apart in the world of chamber music. Created in 1999,
the ensemble is currently the only piano quintet in France. It is
composed of five musicians who lead parallel solo careers yet make the
ensemble their priority, thus creating a dynamic, exacting and complicit
unit.
Graduates of the Paris Conservatoire national supérieur de musique et
de Danse in 2000; they won the Tina Moroni prize in the International
Competition in Florence and did their first recording as part of the
Déclic series (AFAA / Radio France) the same year. They have since
performed in many prestigious festivals and concert venues, including :
Roque d’Anthéron, Pâques à Deauville, Classique au vert at the Parc
Floral, the Passerelle in Saint Brieuc, the Bouffes du Nord, the Cité de
la Musique, the Capitole in Toulouse, the Grands Concerts in Lyon…
Radio Classique frequently schedules them; France Musique is a partner
of their records and has aired several of their concerts. They are also
regular guests on many radio programs.
Their 2007 disc devoted to Schumann and Franck’s quintets was the
fruit of a common vision that had been developed over time and was
awarded the ‘Diapason découverte’, as well as 4 stars from MDLM. In
September 2010, their version of the Franck quartet caused a stir by
winning the Tribune des Critiques on France Musique. Their new Dvořák & Suk's piano quintets CD was released early 2014, and is also
acclaimed by both press and public. They share their love for chamber
music with a number of regular and occasional collaborators, including :
Richard Galliano, Jean-Marc Phillips-Varjabedian, Henri Demarquette,
François Salque, le Quatuor de Crémone…
