About this concert

Four students at the Prague Conservatory set about creating a new string quartet in 1972. The ensemble, which took the name of its founding cellist, shot to worldwide attention with a celebrated debut at the Prague Spring Music Festival three years later.

Throughout its distinguished history, the Prazák Quartet has upheld and enhanced the great traditions of Czech quartet playing. The works of Mozart and Brahms are also central to the group’s artistic ethos.
