The members of the quartet trained in master classes in Great Britain with Professor Hugh Maguire and members of the Quartet "Alban Berg", at Salzburg with professor Walter Levin, member of the Quartet "La Salle" and at London with the members of the Quartet "Amadeus". In 1997 and 1998 "Gaudeamus" Quartet wasinvited as a "quartet in residence" to perform at the Jubilee Hall in Aldeburgh, UK.

For the concert in Sibiu, the program was composed entirely of works by Romanian composers, thus crowning a celebration of current Romanian music ....
