Simply Quartet | Festival Krumlov

The international string quartet (whose players hail from China, Austria and Norway) is honing its chamber music skills at the Joseph Haydn Institute at the Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst Wien. Although unmistakably youthful, his bravura and mature interpretation has won him many prestigious competitions.
For its Czech debut, the Simply Quartet chose Béla Bartók’s challenging string quartet, teeming with a wide range of sound colours and spectacularly presenting a variety of playing techniques. Antonín Dvořák’s penultimate quartet embodies the composer’s compositional maturity, a wide range of emotions, rhythms and moods. This combination is sure to arouse the curiosity of any avid chamber music listener.
