QUARTETTO EOS
Quartetto Eos founded in 2016 at the Conservatorio S. Cecilia in Rome, has quickly gained recognition for the depth of its interpretations, winning the "Premio Farulli" from the Italian Music Critics in 2018. Currently, the quartet is pursuing a Master’s degree in Chamber Music at The Ebène Academy in Monaco and is perfecting its craft with internationally renowned teachers.
Despite its recent formation, the Eos Quartet has already achieved significant success in international competitions and regularly performs across Europe for prestigious institutions such as the Società del Quartetto di Milano and the Philharmonie de Paris.
