In this respect, the ensemble's repertoire includes works of the Renaissance, the Baroque, the Viennese Classic, the early modern as well as composers of the second half of the 20th century. The Pellegrini Quartet has worked closely with contemporary composers Klaus Huber, Péter Eötvös, Salvatore Sciarrino and Walter Levin. The quartet has performed works by Adriana Hölszky, Erhard Grosskopf, Peter Kleindienst and Juliane Klein.
