FRIENDS OF THE AMARYLLIS QUARTET

 

The Friends of the Amaryllis Quartet is a non-profit organization. It supports a self-presented concert cycle of the Quartet in the Laeiszhalle-Musikhalle Hamburg, both financially and administratively. (It is impossible for ticket prices alone to cover the cost of any concert presenting highly qualified musicians who play at an international level.) With the help of the membership dues, and through small and large donations from individuals and foundations, these concerts will be presented on solid financial ground.

 

 

The Friends of the Amaryllis Quartet take pleasure in the high artistic quality of the group they support, and savor its unique programming concept:

 

Each year's concert cycle repertoire is linked together under an overall concept that deals with the musical content of every work.

 

Classic and Romantic repertoire is always paired with a work of contemporary music, often a premiere or a commission.

 

Superb invited soloists widen the options of quartet repertoire.

 

Words and music go hand in hand; in every concert, texts, poems, or letter exchanges that are connected to the evening's composers are read.

 

Members and sponsors receive regular updates regarding concerts and other quartet activities in North Germany. They are also exclusively invited to the group's introductory presentations.

 

A yearly membership costs:

 

            Euro 50,- individual membership

            Euro 80,- couple membership

            Euro 25,- student membership
