Event details

Leipzig String Quartet
An active member of the prestigious Lucerne Festival Orchestra, the group relives the grand tradition of Austro-Germanic chamber music.
 
 
Founded in 1988, the Leipzig String Quartet is now widely acclaimed as one of the most exciting string quartets on the international chamber music scene: The Neue Züricher Zeitung has described the ensemble as "one of the towering and most versatile quartets of our time" and in 2002 The New York Times wrote "if there is a Leipzig sound, this is it!" Three of its members were first chairs in the famous Gewandhaus Orchestra of Leipzig. After studies with Gerhard Bosse, the Amadeus Quartet, Hatto Beyerle and Walter Levin, the quartet went on to win numerous prizes and awards, such as the 1991 International ARD Munich competition, and the Busch and Siemens prizes.
 
 
Today, the Leipzig String Quartet concertizes extensively throughout Europe, in Israel, Africa, Central and South America, Australia and Asia, including appearances at many of the major festivals. In North America, engagements include appearances at Lincoln Center's Alice Tully Hall, at Carnegie Hall's quartet series in Weill Recital Hall, the 92nd St. Y, The Frick Collection, Wolf Trap, the Library of Congress, and chamber music series in Baltimore, Boston, Cleveland, Chicago, Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, Vancouver, Ottawa, Montréal and Quebec, earning them praise for their concerts: "superbly integrated" (Washington Post); "everything, but everything, was perfect" (Le Devoir, Montréal).
