We are excited to announce that the American violinist Miki Nagahara joined our ranks in January 2023. 

We would like to thank Jelena Galić for her many years of dedication to the quartet and wish her all the best for the future. 

After only a week of rehearsals, we took part in the International String Quartet Competition of the Irene-Steels-Wilsing Foundation in Heidelberg on January 18th and took home the 3rd prize. We could not imagine a better beginning together!

Winners of the Competition for the Ensemble-Scholarship for Chamber Music at the HfMDK

This exciting opportunity was offered to us by the Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst Frankfurt. Three ensembles of high caliber, all students at the HfMDK, were chosen to play in front of a selection committee, who decided to award the Malion Quartet with a scholarship prize of
20 000€. We are enormously grateful to the HfMDK and the Friends and Sponsors of the University for creating such a wonderful scholarship specifically curated for musicians dedicated to making a career in chamber music.

A prize winners’ concert took place on 26th October 2022, in the großer Saal of the Frankfurt University of Music and Performing Arts.

Quartet in Residence in Holzhausenschlösschen


We are thrilled to have been selected as the “Quartet in residence” in Holzhausenschlösschen for the year 2023. This will include organising and playing five different concerts in this fantastic venue, in November next year. The first concert will take place as a pure string quartet concert; four further concerts in quintet formation with fantastic guest musicians. We would like to thank Clemens Greve, the director of the Frankfurter Bürgerstiftung, for offering us such a wonderful opportunity.
