Hailing from Austria, Minetti is a string quartet that has performed all over the world including London, Amsterdam, Barcelona, China, and Australia. Founded in 2003, they have shot to the limelight of the classical scene and won many awards in the process. The quartet, which consists of Maria Ehmer on violin, Anna Knopp on violin, Milan Milojicic on viola, and Leonhard Roczek on cello, is a sensation. The Washington Post says that the "spectacularly talented Minetti String Quartet ...boast thoughtful interpretations, beautiful ensemble work, crisp articulation

Some of their most influential teachers and mentors of the quartet members were Johannes Meissl, Hatto Beyerle and the members of the Alban Berg Quartet, and they have received valuable artistic stimulus from the Artemis Quartet and members of the European Chamber Music Academy (ECMA), the Amadeus Quartet, the Quatuor Mosaïques
