Founded in 1991 by four dynamic women at the Music Academy Franz Liszt in Weimar, the Klenke Quartet has never made changes to its lineup. The conclusion that this must be a case of perfect chemistry is absolutely justified. The four string players have retained their »smoldering« sound, which a critic identified early on in their career. Together with Annett Renneberg, who played Signorina Elettra in Donna Leon’s »Commissario Brunetti« adaptations for television, they will take the audience on a colorful journey entitled »And Venice, always Venice«: the actress, who wanted to be an opera singer early in her life, reads texts and poems about what might be Italy’s most famous city.

Annett Renneberg and Klenke Quartett

Palais im Großen Garten

Mozart never ceases to amaze! Alongside the famous Eine kleine Nachtmusik, the OM’s string players will perform a manuscript that was newly rediscovered in 2024. Prior to Mozart, Maddalena Sirmen was the first woman to publish string quartets. Fanny Mendelssohn followed in her footsteps with a magnificent quartet.
