Alinde Quartett
776 / 1500 Übersetzter Text The Alinde Quartet, named after Franz Schubert's song „Alinde“, is currently working with Hänssler Classic and Deutschlandfunk on the challenging project of recording all of the string quartets by the composer, who died at an early age. The unique point: Each CD also features a commissioned composition inspired by Schubert, bridging the gap between past and present. All six parts should be available by Schubert's 200th birthday in 2028. In addition to two Schubert quartets - including the famous „Death and the Maiden“ - this concert will feature a work inspired by the composer as well as a quartet by the young Barcelona composer Marc Migó, which is based on the Catalan folk dance Sardana.

Iveta Apkalna & Alinde Quartett

Tue, Jun 17, 2025, 20:00
Iveta Apkalna (Organ), Alinde Quartett (Ensemble)
Nahezu eine ganze Saison lang haben die Organistin Iveta Apkalna und das Alinde Quartett in ihren philharmonischen »Porträt«-Konzerten begeistert. Zum Abschluss präsentieren sich Organistin und Quartett nun zusammen. Quer durch die Musikgeschichte geht es dabei – bis hin zu einem neuen Werk, das der mit dem »Hindemith-Preis« ausgezeichnete Regensburger SJ Hanke für Orgel und Streichquartett geschrieben hat.Den Anfang machen die Fünf aber mit einer Kirchensonate von Mozart. Von da ab spielt man immer wieder auch seine individuelle Klasse aus. Iveta Apkalna feiert den atemberaubenden Klangstrom des Minimal-Music-Gurus Philip Glass. Das Alinde Quartett verzaubert dagegen mit dem mal kantablen, mal kunstvoll kontrapunktischen »Quartetto dorico«, das der Italiener Ottorino Respighi 1924 komponierte.

Leonkoro Quartett

Fri, Apr 19, 2024, 20:00
Laeiszhalle, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Jonathan Schwarz (Violin), Amelie Wallner (Violin), Mayu Konoe (Viola), Lukas Schwarz (Cello)
Founded in 2019, the Berlin-based Leonkoro Quartett won a number of internationally recognised prizes in 2022 and attracted international attention. Since then, the young ensemble’s career has been skyrocketing: »This quartet should soon be one of the most famous quartets of our time,« according to a review of their first album. »Leonkoro« means »lion heart« in Esperanto, an allusion to the famous children’s book of the same name by Astrid Lindgren about two courageous brothers. The quartet is framed by the brothers Jonathan and Lukas Schwarz on first violin and cello. Together with violinist Amelie Wallner and violist Mayu Konoe, they studied with string quartet luminaries such as Heime Müller from the Artemis Quartet and Günter Pichler from the Alban Berg Quartet.

Amaryllis Quartett

Fri, Jun 7, 2024, 20:00
Laeiszhalle, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Gustav Frielinghaus (Violin), Lena Sandoz (Violin), Mareike Hefti (Viola), Yves Sandoz (Cello), Henrik Wiese (Flute)
According to the accounts of his contemporaries, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was not only a gifted composer but also an enthusiastic quartet player on violin and viola, a passion he shared with his friend and mentor Joseph Haydn. One would have loved to have been there when the two unpacked their instruments to engage in joint rehearsals and music-making. What musical ideas were exchanged here? How was the timbre of Mozart’s playing composed and what ideas of articulation did he come up with? In any case, his admiration for Haydn seems to have been very great. Mozart dedicated a cycle of six string quartets in all to him in 1785. In Rudolf Kelterborn’s string quartet, styles and musical influences mix to the utmost. Complexity, plurality and stylistic diversity intertwine here and in this way create an extremely contemporary sound painting that is at the same time deeply rooted in musical tradition. In the second part, the Amaryllis Quartet will be joined by the solo flutist of the Bavarian Radio Orchestra, Henrik Wiese, and will trace the musical journey back to Mozart via the romantic-impressionist music of Albert Roussel and Mozart’s contemporary Johann Martin Kraus. Mozart’s instrumental music would be inconceivable without his opera compositions, so the evening concludes with an aria from »Le nozze di Figaro«, linking the two genres that were so important to Mozart.

Kuss Quartett

Thu, Oct 31, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Jana Kuss (Violin), Oliver Wille (Violin), William Coleman (Viola), Mikayel Hakhnazaryan (Cello)
Please note the change of artist: The Doric String Quartet unfortunately had to cancel its appearance in this concert due to health reasons. The outstanding Kuss Quartet has kindly agreed to step in. The programme featuring two late string quartets by Beethoven remains unchanged. Beethoven’s late string quartets are among the most fascinating that 19th century music history created: passionate, stirring and yet full of disruptions, they have asked questions of their listeners ever since and are not for nothing regarded as forerunners of the modern age. His final string quartet is a sophisticated composition with catchy melodies, unexpected twists and turns as well as an eerily beautiful slow movement consisting of variations. Its finale entitled »Der schwer gefasste Beschluss« (The Difficult Decision), in particular, made the work famous and provides conjectures to this day as to why the composer probably inwardly slaved away. The String Quartet in A minor, which he composed after a long illness, also offers an insight into Beethoven’s soul. At the centre of this five movement work is an intimate »Dankgesang eines Genesenen« (Thanksgiving of a Convalescent) – touching music which makes you forget time and space. The Kuss Quartet contrasts Beethoven’s emotional depth with a piece dedicated to them that takes a tongue-in-cheek look at the luminary: The composer Bruno Mantovani quotes the thematic material of all Beethoven quartets – within eleven minutes. »My relationship with Beethoven is very intimate, so it seemed impossible for me to compose a homage to him. For this Sixth Quartet, intimidated by the prospect of a confrontation with a corpus that for me, represents the Nirvana of musical history, I decided to turn toward a humorous project.«

Leonkoro Quartett

Thu, Dec 12, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Jonathan Schwarz (Violin), Amelie Wallner (Violin), Mayu Konoe (Viola), Lukas Schwarz (Cello)
Formed in 2019, after a few successful competitions, the career of this young ensemble is heading sharply upwards: »This quartet should very soon be one of the most famous quartets of present times,« it says in a review of their first album. At the Elbphilharmonie, the four musicians can prove all their qualities because their programme passes through over 200 years of music history and, consequently, calls for the greatest flexibility. In the artificial language of Esperanto, »Leonkoro« means »Lionheart«, a reference to the famous children’s book of the same name by Astrid Lindgren about two courageous brothers. Because this quartet is framed on first violin and cello by brothers Jonathan and Lukas Schwarz. Together with violinist Amelie Wallner and violist Mayu Konoe, they studied under string quartet luminaries, such as Heime Müller from the Artemis Quartet and Günter Pichler from the Alban Berg Quartett. And did so successfully: within the briefest time, they scooped up prizes at the International String Quartet Competition at London’s Wigmore Hall, at the Concours International de Quatuor in Bordeaux and the MERITO String Quartet Award. In their programme, they firstly contrast the final, very contemplative quartet by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart with the youthful light-hearted early work of Paul Hindemith. Both composers were on the viola at their respective premiere – and so were still able to apply the finishing touch to their music. Mendelssohn gave the notes for his quartet to his brother, a passionate cellist, for his birthday. He was quite obviously happy about this and performed the work very successfully. To this day, the second movement, a true »song without words«, and the third movement, which evokes dancing fairies from Mendelssohn’s »A Midsummer Night’s Dream, are particularly delightful«.

Goldmund Quartett

Wed, Mar 19, 2025, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Florian Schötz (Violin), Pinchas Adt (Violin), Christoph Vandory (Viola), Raphael Paratore (Cello)
Off to a flying start: in the 2019/2020 season, the European Concert Hall Organisation sent them through the great concert halls of the continent as »Rising Stars«. Now, the musicians of the Goldmund Quartet return to the Elbphilharmonie as a globally successful ensemble. In a varied programme, they combine repertoire classics with special insider tips. The musicians, whose shared history started as early as their school days, take a look into the musical present with a composition by Sophia Jani. On behalf of the quartet, the young composer has created a lyrical and meditative work, which also appeared on the highly acclaimed »Prisma« record in April 2023. The romance of the British late romanticist Gerald Finzi might also be new to many – a melodious movement, which also loses none of its very English and soulful expression in its adaptation for string quartet. Joseph Haydn is fondly described as the »father of the string quartet«. In just under 70 compositions, he established this supreme discipline of chamber music. The Goldmund Quartet devotes itself to his final completed string quartet, which puts forward a great urge to experiment, untamed energy and sophisticated thematic work. Even if there are still individual movements of a later quartet, this spirited F major quartet can certainly be selected as the grand finale of Haydn’s decades-long engagement with the genre. The musicians have also brought along Schumann’s final string quartet – admittedly, the Romantic composer only put a bit of it on paper. His unique cycle with three quartets is evidence of his great fascination and in-depth study of the works of his predecessors. Disguised as a scherzo, the second movement of the usually more lively A major quartet is one of the most beautiful slow movements that Schumann wrote.
