The Matangi Quartet

The Matangi Quartet was founded in 1999 by four young musicians then studying at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague and the Conservatory of Rotterdam. In 2003 Matangi completed the two-year, full-time course at the Netherlands String Quartet Academy under the direction of Stefan Metz (cellist, Orlando Quartet). At the Academy, the Matangi Quartet had the opportunity to take lessons from international renown musicians, including the members of the Amadeus Quartet. The quartet also received intensive mentoring from Henk Guittart (violist, Schönberg Quartet) for several years.

    1999年,四名就读于海牙皇家音乐学院和鹿特丹音乐学院的年轻音乐家组建了Matangi Quartet 弦乐四重奏团(以下简称Matangi Quartet)。后来,他们拜入音乐家Stefan Metz (大提琴手,奥兰多弦乐四重奏团)门下,在荷兰弦乐四重奏学院(Netherlands String Quartet Academy)学习。2003年,Matangi Quartet完成了该校两年全日制课程。这次学习经历使Matangi Quartet得到了来自全世界知名音乐家的指导。这其中包括著名的阿玛迪斯弦乐四重奏团(Amadeus Quartet)。此外,Matangi Quartet还师从音乐家Henk Guittart (中提琴手,勋伯格弦乐四重奏团)学习多年。
