Zemlinsky Quartet
September 25 @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
Founded in 1994, the Czech ensemble raised its profile via competitions such as the London International String Quartet Competition in 2006, when it also took the audience prize, as well as other successes in Prague (2005), Banff (2007) and Bordeaux (2010); in 2008 it received the Alexander Zemlinsky Advancement Award.
Recordings of works by Dvořák and Mozart have been widely praised, The Sunday Times suggesting that ‘Mozart said his “Praguers” understood him. These ones surely do.’

Antonín Dvořák (1841-1904) String Quartet in E flat Op. 51
