More Info:

Vindla String Quartet is something quite unique, a string quartet composing it's own repertoire. In September 2024 they are releasing their second album "Med ljus och lykta" on NAXOS Sweden. The music has it's very own sound, a mixture of influences from classical compositions, jazz, folk and pop. Vindla has established a creative universe, open to new ideas on joint music making. It all started during the Pandemic when restrictions made public performances impossible. The quartet's members started sending bits and pieces of music back and forth to one another, building on each other's ideas. The end result is 9 songs created from the desire to make something together that could not have been done by one of them alone. 'Vindla String Quartet was founded in Malmo in 2008. The quartet is known for it's many collaborations with artists from various genres. Debuting with an album in their own name in 2018 they are recognized as one of Sweden's most interesting chamber music constellations. They aim to widen the idea of what a string quartet can be and do. By making compositions collectively they want to challenge the idea of the composer as a lonesome genius and musicians as interpreters and not creators.
