“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
Founded in 2003, the Paris-based Modigliani Quartet is one of today’s most sought-after quartets, featuring regularly in prominent international series and on the world’s most prestigious stages. In addition to annual tours in the United States and in Asia, the quartet’s numerous European tours have brought them to Wigmore Hall, the Paris Philharmonie, the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées, the Berlin Philharmonie, the Vienna Konzerthaus, the Saint-Petersburg Philharmonia and the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg. In 2020, the quartet became artistic director of the string quartet festival Quatuors à Bordeaux as well as the renowned Bordeaux International String Quartet Competition. The quartet has the privilege of playing on four outstanding Italian instruments from the 17th and 18th centuries.
