The Danish String Quartet maintains its pre-eminence among the many extraordinary chamber music groups of our time.
The quartet's playing reflects impeccable musicianship, exacting artistry, exquisite clarity of ensemble and, above all, an expressivity that is inseparable from the music, from Haydn to Shostakovich to contemporary works. Her performances are characterized by a rare musical spontaneity that gives the audience the feeling of hearing even cherished canon repertoire as if for the first time, and radiates a palpable joy in music-making that has made her a sought-after personality on concert stages around the world.
The combination of classical programs with Scandinavian folk music has become a recognized trademark. The album "Last Leaf " for ECM was voted one of the best classical albums of 2017 by NPR, Spotify and the New York Times, among others. The quartet has received numerous awards and prestigious nominations.
