BARTÓK KVARTET utemeljili su 1957. godine studenti Franz Liszt akademije u Budimpešti na poticaj poznatog profesora i skladatelja Lea Weinera. Kvartet je nekoliko godina nastupao pod imenom Komlós kvartet. Godine 1963. promijenili su ime i od tada nastupaju kao Bartók kvertet. Pobjede na međunarodnim natjecanjima - Haydn natjecanje u Budimpešti, Međunarodno natjecanje gudačkih kvarteta u Liegeu, i Schumann natjecanje u Berlinu - proslavile su Bartók kvartet i lansirale ga na svjetske glazbene pozornice. Kvartet je dva puta nagrađen najvišim priznanjima u Mađarskoj, Nagradom Kossuth, a dobitnik je i Nagrade Unesco i Nagrade Bartók. Bartók kvartet za sobom ima preko 3500 nastupa u svim značajnim svjetskim glazbenim središtima i na najvećim međunarodnim festivalima kao što su Edinbourgh, Salzburg, Tanglewood, Aix-en-Provence, Lucerne, Spoleto. Realizirali su brojne snimke među kojima se ističe snimka cjelokupnog ciklusa Bartókovih kvarteta .Prema pisanju lista High Fidelity snimka Beethovenovih kvarteta u izvedbi ovog renomiranog ansambla jedan je od najvećih tonskih zapisa posljednje četvrtine 20. stoljeća. Ljepota zvuka, neposrednost i izuzetno zajedništvo u sviranju naveli su kritičare i publiku da svrstaju Bartók kvartet među najbolje komorne ansamble na svijetu. |
The BARTÓK QUARTET was founded in 1957 by the students of the Music Academy Ferenc Liszt in Budapest. The quartet members began playing chamber music under the tutelage of the renowned teacher and composer Leo Weiner. Inspired and encouraged by Weiner, they formed a professional ensemble, calling themselves the Komlos Quartet during the first few years. Since 1963 the quartet has changed its name into the Bartok Quartet in honor of their great countryman, Bela Bartok.. The musicians perform on four of the finest instruments of the eighteenth century (Peter Komlos plays the famed "Hamma" Stradivarius built in 1731). The Bartok Quartet rose to worldwide fame as winner of the 1959 International Haydn Competition in Budapest, and International Schumann Competition in Berlin the following year. In 1963, the quartet won the first place at the Budapest competition and the prestigious International String Quartet Competition in Liege, Belgium. The Kossuth Prize - Hungary's highest reward - was awarded to the quartet in 1970 and again in 1997. It was the first time that the prize had been given twice to any ensemble. They were also awarded Unesco Prize in 1981 and Bartok Prize in 1986. In 1997/98 the quartet celebrated its fortieth anniversary season. The Bartok Quartet has performed over 3,500 concerts throughout the world, and its frequent tours of North America have taken it to virtually every major music center, including New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Boston, Cincinnati, Dallas, Denver, St. Louis, Baltimore, New Orleans, Quebec, Toronto and Montreal. Its recent schedules have taken it to such major festivals as Tanglewood, Spoleto, Salzburg, Edinburgh, Aix-en-Provence and Lucerne. The Bartok Quartet is equally at home with repertory from the classical throughout the contemporary areas, but it is best known for performances of works by its illustrious denominator. The quartet has presented the complete Bartok quartet cycle on many occasions, and its recordings of these masterpieces have earned exceptional critical acclaim. In addition to the music of Haydn, Mozart, Schubert and Brahms, the quartet is noted for its recordings of contemporary composers. The ensemble's recording of the Beethoven quartets was cited by the magazine High Fidelity as one of the greatest recordings of the last quarter of the 20th century. The Bartok Quartet’s tonal beauty, clarity, directness and exceptional ensemble playing has caused critics and audiences to acclaim it as one of the most distinguished chamber groups on the international scene. According to the opinion of The New York Times critics, the Bartok Quartet clearly is one of the greatest string quartets in the world. |
