The Pavel Haas Quartet returns to The Concert Hall, following their debut recital in 2007. Based in Prague, the Quartet has quickly become known and celebrated by audiences, critics and promoters around the world. They studied with masters of the Quartet world including members of Quartetto Italiano, Quatuor Mosaiques, Borodin Quartet and Amadeus Quartet and have worked particularly closely with Milan Skampa, the legendary violist of the Smetana Quartet. The Quartet takes its name from the Czech composer Pavel Haas who was imprisoned at Theresienstadt in 1941 and tragically died at Auschwitz three years later.
