Ava - in Persian, this feminine name means sound, melody and noise. The four musicians from Darmstadt and Rhine-Main: Christine Heim, Yvonne Roth-Watcher, Carolin Klug and Sabine Leinfelder are dedicated to classical quartet literature and collaboration with contemporary composers. They impress their listeners with an elegant sonority on a high level.
