Hagen Quartett: Schubert and Ravel

Lukas Hagen, Rainer Schmidt, violins · Veronika Hagen, viola
Clemens Hagen, violoncello

The Hagen Quartett is regarded internationally as one of the foremost string quartets. Their mentors included stars such as Harnoncourt and Kremer. Having played together since their childhood (the three siblings), the musicians combine exceptional freshness and passion with their unique depth of experience. They are renowned for the warmth and emotion of their interpretations. It doesn't come as a surprise that their interpretations of Ravel’s string quartet in F major and Schubert’s string quartet in D minor are intensely beautiful.
