Like Alexej Gorlatch, the Apollon Musagète Quartet
won not only first prize in 2008, but also practically
all the special prizes at the 57th International ARD
Music Competition. The young string quartet rapidly
became established as key players within the European
music scene and continue to thrill audiences and the
press alike with their stirring and moving interpretations.
The four young Poles present a purely Russian
programme here that they will regularly be playing at
future concerts.
