European artistry. Global acclaim. One unforgettable afternoon in Silicon Valley!
Notos Quartett is internationally recognized as one of the most compelling piano quartet ensembles of our time, admired for its virtuosic brilliance, interpretive depth, and stylistic versatility. Founded in Berlin in 2007, the ensemble has achieved global acclaim through major competition successes, prestigious concert appearances, and critically celebrated recordings.
Acclaimed by critics as “one of the finest chamber music performances I have heard anywhere,” Notos Quartett is known for its wide-ranging repertoire, spanning classical masterworks, rediscovered treasures, and contemporary compositions. Their artistic vision bridges tradition and innovation—honoring the established canon while championing new works and reviving overlooked repertoire.
