In this season, our string quartet series features two exciting new ensembles alongside two well-established quartets.
The young musicians of the Leonkoro Quartet, founded in 2019, made a celebrated Philharmonie debut in February 2024; they will showcase the artistic maturity of Beethoven's final string quartet. In 2022, they won the prestigious Concours International de Quatuor à Cordes de Bordeaux; three years earlier, the Simply Quartet took first place at the same competition. In the Simply Quartet’s concert, Mozart and Grieg meet jazz sounds by Wynton Marsalis.
An unmistakably lilt has long been a hallmark of the Quatuor Ébène; they will be joined by Amihai Grosz and Bruno Delepelaire, both section leaders in the Berliner Philharmoniker, for a performance of Tchaikovsky's joyful string sextet "Souvenir de Florence." Internationally-acclaimed violinist Christian Tetzlaff has been performing with his own quartet since 1994. In their concert, Beethoven and Brahms frame a work by Jörg Widmann – arguably the most prolific string quartet composer of our time.
