The musical paths of the four musicians of the Constanze Quartet, hailing from different countries and continents, converged in the small yet uniquely renowned music capital of Salzburg. Mozart’s birthplace became the ideal artistic ground for the musicians from France, Australia, and Austria to develop a shared musical language.

Of particular note is the ensemble’s collaboration with the German CD label CPO. With great success, they released the world premiere recordings of the complete string quartets by the late Romantic German composer Felix Draeseke. This was followed by the recording of the complete string quartets of Michael Haydn, as well as the first complete recordings of the Romantic string quartets and quintets of Emilie Mayer, a contemporary of Beethoven.

The ensemble’s repertoire covers a wide range, with a special focus on rediscovering composers of past eras who have remained largely unknown. The Constanze Quartet is regularly invited to perform at festivals and on tours throughout Europe and the Americas.
