SignumQuartett
Performances of unsparing expressivity, intimacy and vitality are hallmarks of the Signum Quartet, pairing music making of the subtlest order with playing of the highest intensity. The dramatic composition of their programmes is innovative and distinct, and is realised with uncompromising perfection in interpretations of effortless transparency.
The quartet has been a welcome guest at the Wigmore Hall London, Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Philharmonie de Paris, Konzerthaus Vienna, Philharmonie Cologne, the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg and at the BBC Proms.
Following their multi-award-winning album “Aus der Ferne”, the Signum Quartet continues its Schubert cycle for PENTATONE with “Ins stille Land”.
In 2015, they launched their innovative social media project #quartweet, where composers of all ages and abilities are invited to tweet a short quartet of 280 notes or less @SignumQuartet. The project has received much media attention and been featured on Deutschlandfunk, BR U-21 and BBC In Tune.
