If you ask musicians about the worst and best parts of their profession, the answer is usually “traveling” in both cases - understandably, if you look at the Aris Quartet's tour schedule in spring 2025. 

In March, they once again visited the USA: in addition to (now) well-known stops such as California and Illinois, this time the first visit to Arizona was particularly memorable - on top of an enthusiastically received concert in Tucson, there was also the opportunity for a short detour to the incomparable Grand Canyon.

A truly remarkable location for the history of the string quartet can be found near Vienna in the picturesque Esterhazy Palace: Grand Master Joseph Haydn worked here for many years of his life and several of his quartets were premiered at this place - a very special concert feeling for the musicians in April!

A little later, they went to Israel for the first time: an incredibly fascinating trip to a diverse country: whether in historic Jerusalem or in the vibrant coastal city of Tel Aviv - the question of the most beautiful aspects of being a musician was - despite visa stress, luggage and airport lines - extremely easy to answer this time!
