Simply Quartet

Tue, Mar 25, 2025, 20:00
Kölner Philharmonie (Köln)
Simply Quartet
Internationalität ist Trumpf: Gegründet in China, ausgebildet unter anderem in Madrid, beheimatet in Wien – kein Wunder, dass das Simply Quartet immer große Ziele verfolgt. Als ehemalige »ECHO Rising Stars« kehrt das Ensemble nun nach Köln zurück.Die Mitglieder des Simply Quartet sind stets auf der Suche und möchten das Verständnis für Musik immer wieder neu vertiefen, ob bei klassischen oder bei modernen Werken. Dient »Simply« dabei als Beschreibung ihres gemeinsamen Weges? Mitnichten: »In Schanghai gab es nahe des Konservatoriums ein Restaurant namens ‚Simply Thai‘. Das hat uns allen gefallen.« Das Simply Quartet schöpft aus Einflüssen, die das Miteinander bis heute prägen. Dazu zählt neben China und Österreich auch Norwegen, das Heimatland des Cellisten.

Laeiszhalle, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Amarins Wierdsma (Violin), Kate Maloney (Violin), Christoph Slenczka (Viola), Yoanna Prodanova (Cello)
The Barbican Quartet was founded in 2015, and is taught and supported by string quartet stars like Günter Picheler and the Quatuor Ébène. The four musicians present works by Alban Berg and Beethoven as part of the »Teatime Classics« series. 2022 was a memorable year for the Barbican Quartet: they won first prize and other special prizes at the ARD Music Competition, as well as a third prize at the Bordeaux International String Quartet Competition. The ensemble had only just found a new second violinist, and thus a new sound and style of ensemble playing, in February 2022. The Barbican Quartet has appeared at many international festivals, and has been broadcast on the radio several times. In the 2022/23 season, they produced and released their first CD. An extensive tour will take them to different parts of Europe, to Canada and the USA.

Kronos Quartet

Tue, May 14, 2024, 20:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
David Harrington (Violin), John Sherba (Violin), Hank Dutt (Viola), Paul Wiancko (Cello)
According to the New York Times, »the Kronos Quartet has broken the boundaries of what string quartets do.« And it’s true: the quartet led by founder David Harrington has given this traditional genre a thorough update. From minimal music by Steve Reich and Jimi Hendrix arrangements to world-music expeditions to Afghanistan and Brazil, the Kronos Quartet’s sound atlas is a broad and expansive one. The fab four now celebrate their 50th birthday in the Elbphilharmonie. In their »Five Decades« world tour, the Kronos Quartet will be appearing in a line-up that has remained virtually unchanged since 1978. Alongside a work by this year’s spotlight composer Sofia Gubaidulina, the programme also includes »Different Trains« by the minimal music legend Steve Reich, which Kronos premiered many years ago. The piece – which was composed more than 40 years after the Second World War – is a musical reflection on the National Socialists’ deadly deportations of Europe’s Jewish population. The quartet also presents other highlights from their enormous library of music, which includes 1,000 commissions alone, and they also perform brand-new works and arrangements. Even after half a century, the kronometer just keeps ticking.

Novus String Quartet

Fri, Apr 12, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
Jaeyoung Kim (Violin), Young-uk Kim (Violin), Kyuhyun Kim (Viola), Wonhae Lee (Cello)
For its debut concert at the Elbphilharmonie, the Novus String Quartet has come up with something special: all three works on the programme are set in E-flat major. This is a key that is generally particularly soft and bright, but it can be heroic and majestic too, as heard in Beethoven’s »Eroica« Symphony. With works by Mozart, Mendelssohn and Shostakovich, the four exceptional musicians from Korea bring out the key’s full range of timbre, forging a link in the process between the First Viennese School, Romantic music and 20th century Russian avant-garde. Since it was founded in 2007 at the Korea National University of Arts in Seoul, the Novus String Quartet has become one of the country’s leading chamber music ensembles, and has created a sensation in Europe, winning prizes at the prestigious ARD Music Competition and at the Mozart Competition in Salzburg. The well-known Belcea Quartet has been coaching the quartet since 2016. After the Elbphilharmonie concerts scheduled for 2021 had to be cancelled as a result of the coronavirus, the Novus String Quartet is making its first appearance in Hamburg this season.
