"Their playing brings a joyful pleasure in Haydn's inspiration and there is not the slightest suspicion of rehearsal or routine: every bar of the music springs to life spontaneously..." (Penguin Guide)
"Their playing brings a joyful pleasure in Haydn's inspiration and there is not the slightest suspicion of rehearsal or routine: every bar of the music springs to life spontaneously..." Penguin Guide review of the Kodály Quartet's Naxos recording of the Haydn Quartets Op. 76.
The members of the Kodály Quartet met as students at the Ferenc Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest in 1966 but subsequently joined the quartet at different times. The style of the ensemble is based on the renowned Hungarian string quartet tradition.
The Quartet has toured almost every European country, the USA, Central and South America, the Far East, Australia and New Zealand. In addition to the standard classical repertoire, the Kodály Quartet regularly performs works written by Hungarian composers - Kodály, Bartók, Dohnányi and others.
