Bram: “It’s fantastic to welcome a string quartet of this calibre to the Classical Series! The Sonoro Quartet has won numerous prizes, including at the Bartók World Competition in Budapest, and was selected as ECHO Rising Stars. That took them to leading venues such as the Concertgebouw Amsterdam, the Musikverein in Vienna and the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg. Now you can hear them at De Hofnar with a beautiful programme in which Classicism and Romanticism meet.”

Founded in 2019, the Sonoro Quartet is one of the leading young string quartets of its generation. With members from Ireland, Belgium and the Netherlands, the ensemble effortlessly combines classical masterpieces with contemporary compositions and new commissions.

In 2022 the quartet was selected as ECHO Rising Stars for the 2023-2024 season, launching an extensive concert tour of Europe. The tour included performances in some of the continent’s most prestigious halls. The Sonoro Quartet is also part of the MERITA platform, through which they present an innovative artistic project in concerts across Europe.

2023 marked an important milestone for the quartet, with debut performances in renowned halls such as the Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Musikverein Vienna, Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, Kölner Philharmonie, Megaron Athens, Palau de la Música, Philharmonie Luxembourg and many others.

Their performances have been broadcast on international radio stations such as Klara (Belgium), RTÉ (Ireland), Bartók Radio Budapest, SWR (Germany), Radio New Zealand and many others. In 2020, as part of the Beethoven Fest in Bonn, they gave the premiere of Eric Domenech’s string quartet, broadcast by SWR.

The quartet has greatly enjoyed performing in iconic halls such as Bozar Brussels, the Liszt Academy Budapest, Bartók Memorial House Budapest, TivoliVredenburg Utrecht, the National Concert Hall Dublin and The Piano in Christchurch, New Zealand.
