“One of today’s best quartets in the world…Balance, transparency, symphonic comprehension, confident style, their performance reached a very high and inspiring level.”
– Süddeutsche Zeitung

Formed in 2003 by four friends following their studies at the Paris Conservatory, the Modigliani Quartet attracted international attention by winning the Frits Philips String Quartet competition in Eindhoven (2004), the Vittorio Rimbotti competition in Florence (2005) and the Young Concert Artists Auditions in New York (2006). The quartet is a regular guest of the world’s top venues such as Wigmore Hall, Carnegie Hall, Philharmonie de Paris, Berlin’s Konzerthaus, Vienna’s Musikverein and Konzerthaus, and Salzburg’s Mozarteum, and also serves as Artistic Directors of the Rencontres Musicales d’Evian.
