In September 2012, the two pianists Jelena Stojkovi\u0107 and Yudum \u00c7etiner and the two percussionists J\u00fcrgen Spitschka and Manuel Perez Delgado founded the ensemble Quattro per Due. The name literally means \u201etwo for four and four for two\u201c and, correspondingly, they are all for one: for music. All members originate from different European countries: from Germany, Serbia, Spain, and Turkey. They thus represent the crossover of different genres of music as well as the multicultural awakening of the young generation of musicians.<\/p>\n
Yudum \u00c7etiner and Jelena Stojkovi\u0107 met when they both studied piano at the Munich University of Music and Performing Arts, and often played music together. Through different musical projects, they got in touch with Professor J\u00fcrgen Spitschka, and the idea of creating an ensemble in which they could realize their shared vision of music was born, which led to the foundation of Quattro per Due. They found their last missing puzzle piece in Manuel P\u00e9rez Delgado, one of Professor J\u00fcrgen Spitschka’s former students.
\nThe next step was to create a suitable program that incorporated temporal as well as regional variations. This is why their performances feature works by composers from different countries: to demonstrate that music is international and knows no national boundaries. Apart from famous masterpieces, they focus on contemporary compositions. Particularly exciting is that they also perform pieces that they had the opportunity to rehearse with the composer. Some of the pieces were even written especially for this quartet, and were first performed by them.<\/p>\n
Despite having been established only four years ago, this quartet has already performed numerous times with great success, thanks to the musicians‘ level of skill and their extraordinary musical passion. Under the title \u201cNo Limits\u201d, which also represents one of their key concepts, the quartet performed in Stuttgart (\u201cArt in the Tower\u201d) as well as in Munich (Carl-Orff-Hall at the Gasteig), supported by the city’s Department of Arts and Culture as well as the Foreigner’s Council. Under the title \u201cEast-West Side Story\u201d, the quartet gave a guest performance at the auditorium of the \u201cCenter of Art and Music\u201d in Augsburg. Furthermore, they performed at a town hall concert in Vaterstetten as well as at the \u201cPercussion Night\u201d in Stuttgart. They have also already been on a concert tour to Serbia, where they gave one concert in Belgrade and one concert in the synagogue in Novi Sad.
\nGreat musical skills, focused interaction and exiting interpretations are the trademarks of this quartet \u2012 and the pieces they perform in concert are just as exciting as they are gripping.<\/p>\n
