The CySO String Quartet consists of leaders of the Cyprus Symphony, the concertmaster Wolfgang Schroeder, the principal violist Kumiko Okutomi and the principal cellist Jakub Otčenášek as well as the violin tutti member Iraklis Mitellas. Founded in 2023, the Quartet quickly established itself as one of the leading ensembles on the island. Uniting different cultures, the Quartet’s aim is to present very diverse repertoire, ranging from the Baroque to avant-garde music.
In this concert they will take us one a journey from the timeless spirituality and charm of Bach’s Chorales, to Shostakovich’s grand Quartet no. 12, a personal emotional tribute “to the victims of fascism and war”, and the flowing melodic invention of Dvořák’s “American” quartet. Performed with the characteristic passion and precision of the CySO String Quartet, this concert is sure to captivate you!
