Spe­cial con­cert exper­i­ence on March 27, 2023 at Leipzig Opera

We present the newly pub­lished first ver­sion of Verdi’s string quar­tet (pub­lished by Prof. Dr. Anselm Ger­hard, Bern Uni­ver­sity). It will be set against the second ver­sion which has usu­ally been played up to now.
Prof. Dr. Axel Körner (Leipzig Uni­ver­sity) and Prof. Anselm Ger­hard accom­pany the event with explan­at­ory notes in dia­logue with the Vogler Quartet.

In March and sum­mer 2023 we will record the next two quar­tets (A minor op. 16 and C major op. 61) at Börne Stu­di­os in Ber­lin for our com­plete Dvořák record­ing. 
Four albums have already been released.

17th Nord­hess­is­che Kin­der­musiktage with the Vogler Quar­tet are in plan­ning for the peri­od 13–16 June, 2023.

We are happy to real­ize pro­jects with Kas­sel school chil­dren after two years.
In 2021 and 2022, the days had to be can­celed due to the pandemic.

Sound / Artist­ic Qual­ity / Rep­er­toirew­ert / Book­let:  5 out of 5
 
“Of con­sist­ent qual­ity
And that applies not only to the great play­ing of the Vogler Quar­tet, but also to the “qual­ity” of the com­pos­i­tions. They are “great” in a lit­er­al sense. […] Again the per­formers are out­stand­ing. As in the pre­vi­ous epis­odes, they hit the Bohemi­an col­or of this music in a par­tic­u­larly delight­ful way. Not to men­tion the tech­nic­al mas­tery. So if you really want to throw your­self into Czech cham­ber music, you’ve come to the right place with this new double CD.”

Ini­ti­at­or for the record­ing (at Deutsch­land­funk in Cologne in May 2020) is the pian­ist Oliv­er Triendl, our long­stand­ing cham­ber music part­ner and a proven spe­cial­ist in find­ing unknown, often wrongly for­got­ten repertoire.
