The Lajtha Quartet, its name taken from that of the distinguished Hungarian composer and expert on folk-music, with Bartók and Kodály, was founded in 1990 by the violinist Leila Rásonyi, winner of a special prize at the Jacques Thibaud International Violin Competition in Paris in 1971 and an award-winner in Vienna two years later, with study in Budapest and in Moscow. Since 1989 she has been a member of the teaching staff of the Liszt Academy. She is joined in the quartet by the violinist György Albert, the viola-player László Kolozsvári and the cellist László Fenyö.
