Le Quatuor Romantique

Le Quatuor Romantique

Besides being a historic bastion of the arts, Seville is also the ultimate thought destination for those who muse on fiery, sensual Spain. No wonder the city was once considered the epitome of exoticism in the salons of Paris, Brussels and Berlin. Le Quatuor Romantique - with violin, cello, piano and harmonium - discovered folklore in Czibulka's Belle Fille de Seville, sensuality in Balfe's La Zingara and religious polemic in Gounod's Le Tribut de Zamora.
