Toscanini String Quartet [Israel]
The Quartet was founded 12 years ago by the members of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra (IPO). The string quartet was established in order to continue the great tradition of string quartets that had been an integral part of the IPO’s artistic activity and of the musical scene in Israel. The quartet has performed around the world in concerts related to the IPO’s activities such as fundraising evenings. In 2006 the quartet played in Spoleto Festival, Italy, and in New York and San Francisco in 2007. In summer 2008 the quartet took part in the Verbier Festival, Switzerland. In 2010 the quartet has toured in the USA and Latin America as well as in Schloss Elmau, Germany.
The quartet members have created and developed a centre for chamber music studies in the Buchmann-Mehta School of Music.
In 2017 the quartet played in a concert for the inauguration of the “friends of the IPO fund, Vienna”. In 2018 the quartet has initiated a new performance with the prominent choreographer and dancer Renana Raz, combining chamber music and dance.
