In 2022, the ensemble received the prestigious Würth Prize from Jeunesses Musicales Deutschland. Beyond celebrated masterworks, Notos Quartett actively champions contemporary music - composers including Beat Furrer, Bernhard Gander, Garth Knox, and Bryce Dessner have written new piano quartets for the ensemble. The ensemble is also dedicated to discovering and presenting forgotten works of the genre to a broad audience.

This marks the ensemble's fourth visit to Villa Rot. The concert promises to be an evening of musical vitality and outstanding artistic mastery.
