The Schulhoff Quartet is made up of four Czech musicians who first
met and played together during their school years. Their career paths
have since taken them to such renowned musical institutions as the
Vienna Philharmonic, Vienna Chamber Orchestra and the Petersen
Quartet, but they have maintained their musical collaboration throughout
the years, and decided to form a quartet in 2001. The Schulhoff Quartet
  takes a special interest
in the music of composers
from their home country
who perished in the
Holocaust. Composers
such as Gideon Klein, Hans
Krasa, Viktor Ullmann and
Erwin Schulhoff (after
  whom the Quartet has taken its name) left behind a wealth of musical literature, and the Schulhoff Quartet's goal is to bring this music back to Central Europe, where it originated. The Schulhoff Quartet's repertoire also encompasses the classics of the string quartet literature.
