Gounod: Complete String Quartets Quatuor Cambini-Paris - To celebrate the bicentenary of Charles Gounod's birth, ApartÃ© presents the first complete recording of the composer's five string quartets (including two unpublished works) performed on period instruments by the Quatuor Cambini-Paris. Best known for his operas and vocal music, Gounod's quartets are rooted in the traditions of Viennese classicism. The musicians of the Quatuor Cambini-Paris (Julien Chauvin, Karine Crocquenoy, Pierre-Ã‰ric Nimylowycz and Atsushi SakaÃ¯) bring out all the gravity and sweetness contained in these rarely performed works.
