Modulor Quartet
Switzerland
Founded in 2019, the Modulor Quartet has performed at the St. Galler Festspiele, the Swiss Chamber Music Festival Adelboden, the Oldenburgisches Staatstheater, Guerilla Classics Zürich and the quatres saisons festival Lausanne. The young musicians are coached by Rainer Schmidt, Anna Gebert and Eberhard Feltz. In addition to classical repertoire, the Modulor Quartet is dedicated to contemporary music and interdisciplinary projects with dance and architecture. The quartet’s name pays respect to Swiss architect Le Corbusier’s theory of architectural proportions – the golden ratio. In 2021 the quartet was invited to the International Bartók Competition in Budapest. Shortly after, it was awarded a 2nd prize at the Orpheus Chamber Music Competition in Fribourg and the 1st prize at the 2022 Kiwanis Competition in Zurich. The Modulor quartet is currently nominated for the Prix Credit Suisse Jeunes Solistes 2023 (Lausanne).
