Henschel Kvartetten
Året 1994 markerer begyndelsen af Henschel Kvartettens internationale karriere, da cellisten Mathias Beyer-Karlshøj mødte de tre grundlæggere Christoph, Markus, and Monika Henschel, og kvartetten besluttede at hellige sig kammermusikken fuldt og helt.
I 1995 vandt Kvartetten adskillige priser ved internationale konkurrencer i Evian, Banff og Salzburg, og det efterfølgende år 1. Pris og Guldmedalje ved Osaka International Chamber Music Competition. Succesfulde debutkoncerter i verdens førende musikmetropoler, herunder en meget rost BBC live-koncert, hvor Henschel Kvartetten sprang ind for Juilliard Kvartetten, førte Kvartetten ind i kammermusikkens absolutte superliga.
Kvartettens musikalske rejse omfatter mange bemærkelsesværdige højdepunkter. Henschel Kvartetten spillede ved den officielle genåbning af Anna-Amalia Biblioteket i Weimar (på UNESCOs Verdensarvsliste), og rejste til Bruxelles som Kulturambassadør for Tyskland.

Henschel Kvartetten har indspillet for Sony BMG, EMI, Deutsche Grammophon, Challenge Int. Records m.fl., og kvartet- tens indspilninger er blevet hædret med mange priser, herunder ”Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik” og adskillige ”CD of the Year Awards” (IMW) og har fået fremragende anmeldelser i prominente medier som The Gramophone Magazine, Sunday Times og Süddeutsche Zeitung.
Henschel Kvartetten modtager regelmæssigt invitationer til at undervise på verdens førende undervisningsinstitutioner såsom Yale University i USA, Royal Northern College of Music i England, University of Melbourne og Geidai Universitetet i Tokyo i hhv. Australien og Japan. Som modtager af ”Förderpreis des Bayerischen Ministeriums für Wissenschaft und Kunst” er Kvartetten engageret i et løbende samarbejde med Det Bayeriske Kulturministerium om fødekædeprojekter i Kvartettens hjemby, München.
2019 var Henschel Kvartettens 25-års jubilæumssæson, og de oprindelige medlemmer udtaler, at den bedste jubilæumsgave var, at DR RadioSymfoniorkestrets tyske koncertmester Teresa La Cour indtrådte som andenviolinist i kvartetten efter nogle år med udskiftninger på denne plads.
