The Noga Quartet, made up of students from the Conservatories in Paris, Lyon, and Milan, was founded in 2008 at the Berlin University of the Arts. Their principal coaches are Heime Müller and Eckart Runge (Artemis Quartett). In 2008, they won third prize at the Alice Samter Chamber Music competition in Berlin.

In the summer of 2009, they played at the Barga Festival in Italy, and since 2010 the quartet has been working with Gregor Sigl (Artemis Quartett) and Rainer Kimstedt (Kreuzberger Quartet and Brahms Quartet).

The members of the Noga Quartet also regularly perform for various Berlin orchestras, including the Berliner Philharmoniker, Deutsches Symphonie Orchester-Berlin, and the Rundfunk Sinfonieorchester.
