Founded in 1988 and named after the Spanish philosopher Pablo Minguet, who wanted to make the arts accessible to a broad public; the Minguet-Quartett plays in the line-up Ulrich Isfort (violin), Annette Reisinger (violin), Aida-Carmen Soanea (viola) and Matthias Diener (cello). Its repertoire ranges from the Classical period to the avant-garde and includes numerous premieres, among others by Wolfgang Rihm and Jörg Widmann. For its recordings the quartet received the ECHO Klassik in 2010 and a Diapason d’Or in 2015; in 2020 it was supported by a Reload scholarship from the Kulturstiftung des Bundes. In 1998 Cybele Records released the album Russian Piano Quintets with the ensemble.
