The Zurich based Galatea Quartet, comprised of siblings Sarah and Julien Kilchenmann, Yuka Tsuboi and Hugo Bollschweiler, was founded in 2005. The ensemble studied under the tutelage of both Stephan Görner of the Carmina Quartet in Zurich and the Artemis Quartet in Berlin. A recipient of the European Chamber Music Academy (ECMA) fellowship, the quartet began a fruitful collaboration with the academy’s director Hatto Beyerle that continues to this day.
‘Landscapes’, their debut CD for Sony Classical, featuring works by Ernest Bloch, was awarded the Echo Klassik Prize 2012 in the category of Best Chamber Music Recording of the Year (20th/21st century).
