The Tetzlaff Quartett have rapidly established a reputation as „one of the world’s most fascinating chamber ensembles. “ (Florenz, La Nazione, 20.01.2000). Discovering a mutual devotion to chamber music Christian and Tanja Tetzlaff, Hanna Weinmeister and Elisabeth Kufferath formed their string quartet in 1994. Since then, the four musicians play several chamber music evenings every season for which they have received impressive critical acclaim.

The Tetzlaff Quartett frequently gives concerts not only in Germany, but also in France, Italy, Belgium, Switzerland and Great Britain. In the past years the quartet has performed at the Auditorium du Louvre in Paris, at the Société Philharmonique of Brussels, at Vienna’s Musikverein as well as the Concertgebouw Amsterdam. The ensemble is a welcome guest at international festivals such as the Berliner Festwochen, Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival and Bremen Musikfest. They are recording a CD on the AVI label with works of Schönberg and Sibelius.
