A great concern for the Austrian Adamas String Quartet has always been the treatment of composers whose works were termed 'degenerate' and banned during the Nazi regime or who themselves became victims of the barbaric extermination machinery. On their second album, the critically acclaimed ensemble devotes itself to the string quartet (1921) by the Czech composer Hans Krasa, a work showing an astounding compositional maturity - despite being only his second published piece. In contrast to Krasa who was later murdered in Auschwitz, Alexandre Tansmann was able to exile to the U.S. in 1940, ten years after composing Triptyche for string quartet. Ernst Krenek, later as well being forced to migrate, also published his Neoromantic-oriented String Quartet No. 5 Op. 65 in the year 1930. Adamas String Quartet Claudia Schwarzl, Roland Herret - violins; Anna Dekan - viola; Jakob Gisler, cello Chamber music studies with Johannes Meissl (Artis Quartet) at the Joseph Haydn Institute for Chamber Music and Special Ensembles at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna, in addition to participation in numerous masterclasses with members of renowned string quartets, gave the Adamas Quartet, founded in 2003, considerable stimulation for their successful chamber music achievements. In addition to numerous concerts in Austria and abroad, the Adamas Quartet made its Vienna Musikverein debut in 2010. Concerts in Venezuela, Armenia, France and Greece, organized by the Austrian embassies, followed the quartet's acceptance into the sponsorship program «New Austrian Sound of Music» by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the 2012-2013 season, which made it possible for the quartet to perform many more concerts abroad. In January 2013, the four musicians became the first Austrians to perform with French cellist Victor Julien-Laferrière at the Fondation Singer-Polignac in Paris. In June 2013, the quartet gave its debut performance at the renowned Suntory Hall in Tokyo as part of the Rainbow International concert series. Two years later, they performed in Izumi Hall in Osaka. In November 2014, the quartet was invited by Jeunesse to perform in the new hall, MuTh, of the Vienna Boys' Choir. In 2015, the four musicians were selected to play three concerts in Rome, Milan and Feltre as part of the World Fair. In February 2016, the quartet was invited by the Britten-Pears Foundation to become the quartet in residence for two weeks in Aldeburgh, England, where they gave two successful concerts in the Jubilee Hall in Aldeburgh.
