Shadows combines poetry and vitality. This title is an allusion to the many harmonic shadows vibrating behind each single, clear note. The way we make each note resonate on the instrument causes the saturation phenomenon. You cannot hear the fundamental note, only its projections. We perform countless notes at breakneck speed – it's like playing while holding your breath.

When music is played at such a frantic pace, the ear experiences overload, and it sounds as if twenty musicians are playing at once. To perform scores by Yann Robin, Franck Bedrossian and Raphaël Cendo, you have to be fit, because the scores are so demanding.

The linguistic subtlety of Tracé d’ombres (2005-2007) is almost classical; it continues in the great string quartet tradition. Franck Bedrossian develops solos rich in color, accompanied very softly by a wide variety of timbres and soft gestures. It’s as if he is stretching an elastic band and only releases it in the last twenty explosive measures of his piece. Raphaël Cendo's writing is exactly like the man himself: very sensitive and extremely refined. It’s up to the interpreter to isolate the elements which need be heard, within this exuberant material.In Vivo (2008-2011) is an amazing piece, which suspends a central movement of absolute slowness between two hellish outbursts. For Substance(2013), we designed the “guero bow”, which has notches. When our instruments are bowed with guero bows, it produces extraordinary sounds. It's a dizzying piece! Yann Robin's virtuosity in Crescent Scratches (2010-2011) is impressively clear. It comprises only sound components, which he combines in a series of small fugues which react to each other in quick succession. Clear, direct, pragmatic, he prioritizes structure and clarity, and does so with sensitivity.

The Tana String Quartet was formed in 2010 to promote contemporary repertoire and enhance the relationship between composer and performer; they place no boundaries when selecting style or genre and often present classical repertoire alongside contemporary works.

The quartet is recipient of an array of international awards from the Pro Quartet – CEMC foundation in Paris, the Verbier Festival Academy, the Union of Belgian Composers (Fuga Prize) and received the Octave for best exponents of contemporary music. In 2013, they were honoured at the HSBC European Music Academy Awards and premiered a cycle, Oracion, a major cross-over project featuring both world and contemporary music, produced by the Abbaye de Royaumont in collaboration with the Aix-en-Provence festival.

They will soon present new major works especially written for them to include Aracne, by Spanish composer Hector Parra, to be premiered in Paris (Louvre), and repeated at the Girona Festival, Palau de la Musica in Barcelona, Wigmore Hall in London and the Konzerthaus in Vienna, and the third quartet by French Rising Star composer, Yann Robin, at the Philharmonie de Paris, Wigmore Hall in London and Concertgebouw in Bruges.
