The more I get to know Nordgrenâs music, which I have long admired, the more I am convinced of his importance as a composer. All through his life he proved a staunch individualist who strayed from any particular âschoolâ, who remained his own self till the end of his composing career and for whom music was not just putting notes together but first and foremost a powerful way to communicate. These string quartets are no exception.The Tenth and Eleven String Quartets were composed for and first performed by the Tempera Quartet, so no wonder that they play this music with all their heart. Recording and production are again up to Albaâs best. I now wish that they might be persuaded to record all of Nordgrenâs string quartets.Hubert Culot
