The Kandinsky Quartet – founded in Vienna in 2020 – is quickly making its presence felt across Europe. With a keen ear for color and a sharp musical instinct, the ensemble explores the richness of the string quartet repertoire through four distinct characters and artistic perspectives.

In April 2026, they were awarded Third Prize and the “Genuin Classics” Prize at the Bad Tölz Competition in Munich. Previous accolades include the first prize at the Gasteig Competiiton and prizes at the Boccherini and Mozart Competitions, as well as the “Verbier Anniversary Prize.”

Engagements in season 2025/26 bring them to Spain, France, Italy, Belgium, Germany and of course Vienna, where they start the sixth season of the concert cycle ArbeiterInnenkonzerte as artists in residence.
