The Atenea Quartet was founded in 2019 in Barcelona. An internationally acclaimed ensemble dedicated to exploring the vast string quartet repertoire, they were a finalist in the 2023 Young Classical Artists Trust international auditions, and are currently based in Basel, Switzerland.

Renowned for their performances of classical and contemporary works, the Quartet has received numerous awards, including the "Prix Credit Suisse Jeunes Solistes 2023," first prizes in the Competition el Primer Palau 2022 and Orpheus Swiss Chamber Music Competition 2021.

The Quartet has been invited to prestigious festivals such as the Lucerne Festival, the Barcelona String Quartet Biennial, the Schubertíada de Vilabertran, the Musikdorf Ernen Festival, the Kulturfest Resonanzen Sils, the Wissembourg International Music Festival, Festival d’Aix en Provance and the Juan March Foundation.

They have also premiered works by composers like Raquel García-Tomás, Antoni Ros-Marbà, and Mauro Hertig. Future engagements also include a recital at the Festival de Barcelona Obertura.
