Written in 2018-2019 especially for my friend and colleague the danish recorder player Clara Guldberg Ravn who premiered the piece at our concert Svävningar February 13th at Skeppsholmen in Stockholm. The String quintet consists of handpicked musicians based in Stockholm. I’m also very glad to be doing this concert with my long time friend and former classmate Gustav Lindsten who has written a piece for the concert Deus ex machina.
