About Danish String Quartet
Prodigies rarely appear in the string quartet genre, but three of the four members of the Danish String Quartet began playing together as children. The group has impressed audiences in Denmark and abroad. The members of the Danish String Quartet are Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen, violin; Frederik Øland, violin; Asbjørn Nørgaard, viola; and Fredrik Schøyen Sjölin, cello. The quartet made its debut in 2002 at the Copenhagen Summer Festival. After accumulating major awards, the quartet was signed to the Dacapo label, releasing Carl Nielsen's complete string quartets in two volumes. In 2013, the Danish String Quartet snared the prestigious designation as BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artists. The group was named Musical America's Ensemble of the Year for 2020. The fourth volume in its Prism series was issued in 2022, featuring music by Mendelssohn, Bach, and Beethoven.
