V4 String Quartet

✨ Ever since the founding of our quartet, August has always meant beautiful music, hard work, and a strong sense of community — and this year was no different.

We were delighted to return as the Ensemble in Residence of the MiraTone Festival and Academy in Budapest, performing in five inspiring concerts alongside wonderful musicians and giving master classes to participants from all over the world.

Today, we’re happy to share photos from our first performance of the 2025 edition, featuring two works that lie especially close to our hearts:
🎵 Ľudovít Rajter: _String Quartet No. 2_ (1943–1944)
🎵 Ernő Dohnányi: _String Quartet No. 2 in D-flat major_, Op. 15

The connection between Rajter and Dohnányi — friends in both Budapest and Bratislava — beautifully reflects our mission to bridge cultures and traditions within the V4 region.

Dohnányi’s quartet holds an even more personal meaning for us, as it was the very first piece we ever played together. Each time we return to it, we discover something new — another layer of depth, emotion, and craftsmanship from one of Hungary’s greatest composers.

We look forward to sharing more moments and memories from our residency with you soon! 💫
