Now be honest  – do you know any music from Romania, Bulgaria, Sweden or Portugal? There you have it. History judges music unfairly  – Central European repertoires prevail, complemented by Russian musical tradition. To correct this, the Dahlkvist Quartet was formed in 2007 and consists of three Dahlkvist siblings from Sweden along with Polish violinist Bartosz Cajler. Performing Grieg’s String Quartet, the musicians will contrast one of the most famous chamber music works to come out of Scandinavia with a work previously unknown to us – the Fourth String Quartet composed by Swede Hilding Rosenberg.
