The Leonkoro Quartet, founded in 2019 and winner of various prestigious awards in 2022 - nine prizes at the Wigmore Hall International Competition, including first prize, BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artists, Jürgen Ponto Foundation Music Prize, first prize at the Bordeaux Competition - makes various recordings for Alpha Classics. First stop: Vienna and its influence on the musical landscape of the early twentieth century. Berg completed his Suite lyrique on 5 October 1926: this suite, which combines theatricality and strict architecture, free atonality and dodecaphony, expresses the composer's passionate love for Hanna Fuchs at that time. Erwin Schulhoff, born in Prague in 1894, was discovered by Dvořák and studied in Vienna from the age of 12. He dedicated his Five pieces to Darius Milhaud, because around 1913 he also studied with Debussy in Paris. He ultimately died in 1942 in a prisoner-of-war camp in Bavaria. In his Opus 5, which Glenn Gould describes as "sensual" expressionism, Webern mourns the death of his mother on 7 September 1906.
