The Jerusalem Quartet: Since the ensemble’s founding in 1993 and subsequent 1996 debut, its four Israeli musicians have embarked on a journey of growth and maturation. This journey has resulted in a wide repertoire and stunning depth of expression, which carries on the string quartet tradition in a unique manner. The ensemble has found its core in a warm, full, human sound and an egalitarian balance between high and low voices. This approach allows the quartet to maintain a healthy relationship between individual expression and a transparent and respectful presentation of the composer’s work. It is also the drive and motivation for the continuing refinement of its interpretations of the classical repertoire as well as exploration of new epochs.
The Jerusalem Quartet is a regular and beloved guest on the world’s great concert stages. Recent appearances include a Beethoven quartet cycle at Wigmore Hall in London; a Bartók cycle at the Salzburg Festival; their third annual string quartet seminar in Crans-Montana, Switzerland; and, since 2022, a residency at the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance.
