The Leonkoro Quartet's debut CD was released in September 2023, confirming what has long been said about the quartet: A young ensemble made up of talented musicians playing at the highest level. Their affinity, which they artfully showcase in every respect on the CD with Ravel and Schumann, is something they consciously seek out: The quartet's name refers to Astrid Lindgren's novel "The Brothers Lionheart". In Zurich, however, they no longer favour Ravel and Schumann, but other composers: here you can look forward to string quartets by Mozart, Mendelssohn and Hindemith and chamber music precision at the highest level. For greats such as Alfred Brendel and Wolfgang Rihm, the Leonkoro Quartet is already one of the top quartet groups in existence today.
