WALLINGER QUARTET

Wallinger QuartetHOME PAGE

259    (since 10 of November, 2009)

Originated in 1986 and within that first year the quartet won first place in the Beethoven Hradec Competition. In 1988, it added the Honourable Mention award at the Prague Spring international competition. In 1990, Lubomír Kostecký, member of the Smetana Quartet, meaningfully contributed to the artistic growth of the Wallinger Quartet, and the ensemble gained the Prix Espace 2 and Special Award at the competition in French Evian. The quartet's current members have played together since 1990, when cellist Jan Škrdlík joined the ensemble. Listeners in concert halls of Europe, America and Africa have had the opportunity to listen to the rich repertoire of the Wallinger Quartet.
This ensemble, which is the chamber ensemble of the Brno State Philharmonic, brought about a set of recordings for foreign and Czech publishing and radio. Also interesting is its collaboration with distinguished musicians like American pianist Carry Lewis, British oboist Douglas Boyd and Japanese pianist Michiko Otaki.
