Wherever this unorthodox quartet is performing, it leaves behind an inspired and astonished audience. Since the foundation in 1999, VerQuer has been showing, how diverse and exciting the play on traverseflute can be.

The repertoire of VerQuer is as versatile as the musicians themselves. On bass-, alto-, concert-, and piccolo-flute they spell impressing timbres and effects.

Always looking for new possibilities of expressing music, own arrangements developed. A further artistic desire of the quartet is the extension of the contemporary flute repertoire.

Therefore they performed the première of "The Priest and the Macician" by Günther Zabernigg (A) in 2002, and the première of "Silent Movie" by Benedikt Brydern (USA) in 2004.
