About

In 2012, the Zaïde quartet, formed in 2009, received the first prize of the International Joseph Haydn Chamber Music Competition in Vienna as well as three special prizes, including the prize for the best performance of Haydn’s works.

In September 2011, the four female musicians were awarded the first prize at the Beijing International Music competition. In 2010, only one year after its creation, the Zaïde quartet had received an impressing series of prizes: the unanimous international press prize of the international string quartet competition of Bordeaux, the third prize of the Banff International String Quartet Competition (Canada) and the first prize of the international Charles Hennen competition in Heerlen (Netherland).

The Zaïde quartet is already invited in prestigious concert halls like the Berliner Philharmonie, the Wigmore Hall in London, the Musikverein of Vienna, the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées and the Cité de la Musique in Paris.
