The Mozart Piano Quartet, founded in 1997, is made up of international soloists from Germany and Austria. The ensemble devotes itself to the experience of music as a rhetorical language through the intimacy of chamber music.
The Quartet has recorded for all the major radio stations in Germany and for ABC Classic FM in Australia. Their 2000 recording of Brahms's Piano Quartets (Arte label) was described by Heinrich Schiff as ``a stunningly impressive interpretation.'' Their most recent release is a recording of the Mozart Piano Quartets (Arte label).
The audience is invited to join the artists at a reception following the performance.
The concert will be presented in the Auditorium of the APS Conference Center (Bldg. 402) at Argonne. It is open to the public; no special permit is required to enter the laboratory site.
