Description:

Vagn Holmboe (1909â??96) was one of the greatest 20th-century composers of string quartets. His monumental series of 21 quartets traces the evolution of a highly individualistic style deeply rooted in the Nordic landscape while drawing influences from Eastern European folk music. The third volume in this acclaimed cycle by the Nightingale String Quartet captures Holmboe at the peak of his creativity. His unique voice emerges in these works, allowing the music to breathe and flourish organically, like the Nordic scenery he considered himself to be intrinsically part of. -

Vagn Holmboe (1909-96) stands as one of the greatest 20th-century composers of string quartets, with a monumental series of 21 quartets demonstrating his distinctive metamorphosis method. Holmboe's vibrant and organic quartet works are profoundly rooted in a Buddhist inspired perspective on life, an outlook which, though he kept it private, led him to view all manifestations of life as part of a cosmic whole. Equally essential is the influence from folk music. This third volume of the acclaimed Nightingale String Quartet series captures Holmboe at the peak of his creativity, with his musical metamorphosis practice fully flourishing.
