“Blinding in its purity and with so much natural energy”. The critic from the magazine Klassisk understood very well why the Belcea Quartet had shot to the top when they visited Mogens Dahl Koncertsal in 2009. The ensemble has impressed from the outset and was already, when the members were quite young, a ’quartet in residence’ of the London Wigmore Hall for all of five years.

The British quartet was founded by Rumanian Corina Belcea and Polish Krzysztof Chorzelski. Since then, the French musicians Axel Schacher and Antoine Lederlin have contributed to the national diversity of the Quartet.
