The really flattering explanation:
"Appreciating their dedicated, bold and great artistic Intention, the way of their appearance and performing, the choice of program including improvisation and modern own ompositions, defining the string quartet genre in a new, young and vivid way and on a high level musicianship."
We would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to the Würth Foundation and the Jeunesses Musicales Deutschland but also to all the teachers and friends who supported us on our way.

Back in town!
For two weeks we have travelled through South Africa (completely fascinated), saw at least four of the "Big Five" and had some great concerts.
Really pleased especially by two guest appearances at performances by Rolf Stahlhofen ("Söhne Mannheims") and his georgeous band as well as with the great Laith Aldeen and with frontman of "Rock 4".
Instead of reindeers we got giraffes and there were no sleights but a safari-jeep but though we had strong christmas feelings coming up at 35 degrees.
Now we start preparing for the Mendelssohn Competition in January but first:
Merry Christmas!
