An ensemble with profile and international presence

According to the artist profile, the Munich ensemble looks back on more than 25 years of concert history, regularly touring Europe and having already appeared at festivals as far as Mexico. Its discography includes, among other things, the complete recording of Schubert's string quartets as well as the ongoing complete recording of the quartets and quintets by Friedrich Gernsheim.

Chamber music that takes a breath and sparks immediately
This music reveals a special presence particularly in the Mars-Venus Hall: The space in the Bavarian National Museum offers a historic ambiance, barrier-free access, and a strong cultural aura. For the current violin days, the organizer points out the use of instruments and bows from the MÜNCHNER GEIGENTAGE exhibition; during the concert, instruments will be changed so that the audience can directly compare sound differences. This promises a concert experience with high detail depth and vibrant audience atmosphere.

What awaits musically this evening
The evening combines classical formal rigor with emotional warmth: Haydn sets the elegant beginning, Beethoven brings dramatic intensity, and Brahms finally the rich, romantic sound arc. This very sequence makes the opening concert so appealing for chamber music fans – an evening that relies on fine orchestration, precise interplay, and an intense stage performance from the first entry to the last chord.
