Eliot Quartet Ignites Chamber Music Glow in Sulzbach-Rosenberg

A world-class string quartet is performing in Upper Palatinate: The Eliot Quartet will illuminate Haydn, Shostakovich, and Schubert on January 21, 2026, in the concert hall of the State Vocational School Sulzbach-Rosenberg – an intense concert experience with sonic depth, fine balance, and captivating stage performance.

Sound Colors, Tension, Architecture

The program spans from Haydn's classical craftsmanship to Shostakovich's cantabile drama to Schubert's symphonically dimensioned quartet in G major D 887. Precise interplay, breath in phrasing, and a meticulously considered orchestration characterize the ensemble – audible in the synchronization of voices, the breathing conduct of the music from within, and in the sovereign control of sound.

Live Atmosphere with Goosebumps Moments

When the four musicians draw their bows, the audience's mood intensifies: Shimmering tremolos, angular accents, velvety pianissimi – together with light and room acoustics that carry every nuance. This creates a live atmosphere where Shostakovich's E-flat major quartet No. 9 op. 117 appears sharply focused, and Schubert's late work glows in large arcs of breath.

Profile, Awards, Prestige

Since its founding in 2014 in Frankfurt am Main, the internationally composed ensemble has won significant competitions – including the 1st prize at the Karol Szymanowski Competition, awards at the German Music Competition, and 2nd prizes in Salzburg (Mozart) and Melbourne. The highly regarded cycle 'DSCH & beyond' featuring all of Shostakovich's quartets and recordings with the Genuin label underpin their artistic authority.

Evening Program

Joseph Haydn: String Quartet in C major op. 54/2 – Dmitri Shostakovich: String Quartet No. 9 in E-flat major op. 117 – Franz Schubert: String Quartet in G major D 887.

Fan Voices

The reactions online are clear: The Eliot Quartet fascinates its fans. On Instagram, a visitor writes: 'The intensity of their Shostakovich interpretation takes my breath away!' On Facebook, it says: 'Four voices, one breath – this quartet makes time stand still!'

Conclusion

An evening for lovers of great chamber music: sonically rich, dramaturgically captivating, emotionally compelling. Anyone who wants to experience string quartet art on par with the best ensembles should secure this date – live it sounds bigger, deeper, more immediate.
