Presto\nNotos Quartet\n\nSindri Lederer\, violin\nAndrea Burger\, viola\nPhilip Graham\, cello\nAntonia K öster\, piano\n\nSince its foundation in 2007\, the Notos Quartet has won 6 first prizes and various special awards in numerous international compe titions (including Holland\, Italy\, England\, and China). Notos has since established international renown through performances in European concert halls such as the Berliner Philharmonie\, Konzerthaus Berlin\, Konzerthau s Vienna\, Concertgebouw Amsterdam\, Tonhalle Zürich\, and Bozar Brussels . The Quartet has also performed at important festivals in Rheingau\, Schw etzingen\, Würzburg\, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern\, Usedom\, Montpellier\, Fra nce\, and regularly travels to Russia\, Australia\, South Africa\, China\, and Japan.\n\nIn addition to the well-known masterpieces\, the quartet is committed to contemporary music and world premieres. Postponed from the 2 019/20 season due to the pandemic\, premieres of works by Beat Furrer\, Ju dit Varga\, and Bernhard Gander were performed in Vienna\, Innsbruck\, and Berlin in 2020/21.\n\nThe musicians endeavor to track down lost and forgo tten works of the piano quartet genre and to present them to a wider audie nce. This approach is reflected in their debut CD\, Hungarian Treasures\, which was released by Sony Classical/RCA in February 2017. This recording includes the world premiere of Béla Bartók’s Piano Quartet in C Minor. The rediscovery of this piece garnered worldwide attention and recognitio n for the ensemble. Notos’ second recording on Sony Classical\, is dedic ated entirely to the great romantic Johannes Brahms–it includes the famo us Piano Quartet in G Minor\, and an arrangement of the Symphony No. 3 by Andreas N. Tarkmann created especially for the Notos Quartet.\n\nThe Notos Quartet’s reputation has grown through numerous concert recordings\, in terviews\, and portraits on radio and television across the world. Broadca sters include ARD\, ZDF\, Deutschlandfunk\, the BBC\, France Musique\, and NHK Japan.\n\nIt is important to the musicians to take a stand on social issues. They were the first artists to return the prestigious German music prize ECHO Klassik in 2017 in response to the ECHO Pop Awards of 2018\, w hich honored an album containing anti-Semitic language. Their actions trig gered a protest movement that was joined by many well-known artists\, incl uding Igor Levit\, and Daniel Barenboim. As a result of this protest the E CHO brand was abolished.\n\nThe social commitment of the ensemble is also reflected in its promotion of young musicians. They have taught at the Roy al Northern College of Music in Manchester\, led the masterclass at Saigon Chamber Music in Vietnam\, and they organize the annual Notos Chamber Mus ic Academy. The Academy was founded in 2019 in cooperation with the Jeunes ses Musicales Deutschland in Weikersheim.\n\nNotos studied with Günter Pi chler\, the leader of the legendary Alban Berg Quartet\, in Madrid at the Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía until 2017. Other teachers and su pporters include the Mandelring Quartet\, Menahem Pressler\, András Schif f\, Clemens Hagen\, and Uwe Martin Haiberg.\n\nThe Notos Quartet plays on instruments from old Italian masters\, this is made possible by the Merito String Instruments Trust. As Pirastro artists\, the Quartet plays exclusi vely on strings made by the renowned manufacturer Pirastro GmbH.\n\nhttp:/ /www.notosquartett.de/en\n\nThe Notos Quartet is represented by Künstlers ekretariat Astrid Schoerke GmbH:\nhttp://en.ks-schoerke.de/\n\nThe Notos Q uartet visits with the  financial support of the Goethe-Institut.\n\n\n&n bsp\;\n\n \;\n\n \;\n\n \;\n\nClick here for more information about our chamber music programs.\n\nChamber Music at the Clark is made p ossible by the generous support of The Ahmanson Foundation\; The Colburn F oundation\; Martha Bardach\; Catherine Glynn Benkaim\, Ph.D. and Barbara T immer\; Dr. Marla C.
