Praised by Le Progrès (France) for its “stunning technical expertise, outstanding ensemble and a particularly accomplished musical identity,” the Amedeo Modigliani Quartet was formed in 2003 by the four young musicians studying at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris (CNSM). The group was soon admitted to the prestigious string quartet class at the Conservatoire National de Région de Paris (CNR), where they worked with Daria Hovora, Marie Bereau and the Ysaye Quartet.

The Amedeo Modigliani Quartetwon the 2006 Young Concert Artists International Auditions in New York and the 2005 Young Concert Artists European Auditions in Paris. They made debuts in New York at Carnegie’s Zankel Hall, in Washington, DC at the Kennedy Center, and in Boston at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, and they continue to perform in major venues throughout the United States. Based in France, the Quartet has also performed at renowned festivals and concert venues in Europe including the City of London Festival, Folle Journée (Nantes), Festival de l’Epau, Festival de Deauville, Festival du Périgord Vert, Festival du Périgord Noir, Théâtre de la Ville-Abbesses, and Théâtre Mogador in France, the Royal Concertgebouw, the Nederlands String Quartet Festival, and the Eindhoven Frits Philips Music Center in the Netherlands, the Festival Musika-Música in Bilbao, Spain, and the Cambridge Summer Music Festival in the U.K. In 2006 the NASCOR label released the Quartet’s first CD, which includes works by Schumann, Hugo Wolf, and Mendelssohn.
