About Gringolts Quartet
The Gringolts String Quartet, which has also used the name Gringolts Quartet, has emerged as one of western Europe's most acclaimed young chamber ensembles. The group was formed in Zurich in 2008 and is led by violinist Ilya Gringolts. Its other members are violinist Anahit Kurtikyan, violist Silvia Simionescu, and cellist Claudius Herrmann. The group landed a top-level recording contract with unusual speed, releasing an album of Schumann string quartets in 2011. The quartet's recordings of Schoenberg's String Quartets Nos. 2 and 4 appeared in 2017. A recording of quintets by Glazunov and Taneyev with Christian Poltéra earned a Diapason d'Or award. The Gringolts String Quartet returned in 2020, joining the quartet Meta4 for a recording of octets by Mendelssohn and Enescu. In 2022, the Gringolts String Quartet completed its Schoenberg cycle with a recording of String Quartets Nos. 1 and 3.
