Notos Quartet

CaixaForum Barcelona Av. de Francesc Ferrer i Guàrdia 6-8, 08038 Barcelona
The Notos Quartet is regarded as one of the "outstanding chamber music formations of our time" (Fono Forum, 2017). Since its foundation in 2007, the Notos Quartet has won six first prizes as well as numerous special prizes at international competitions in England, Holland, Italy and China. Above that, in 2017 the quartet was awarded the ECHO Klassik for newcomer of the year, at the time a prestigious prize that in its history had only been given to ensembles on the rarest of occasions.
The Notos Quartet’s vision is to perform the well-known masterpieces, to reveal lost and forgotten treasures and to champion new compositions for the unique genre of the piano quartet. This is evident on the ensemble’s debut album Hungarian Treasures released by Sony Classical/RCA in February 2017. It includes the world premiere recording of Béla Bartók’s Piano Quartet, a rediscovery for which the ensemble received international acclaim.
