Engegard Quartet
Description:
A new-look Engegård Quartet, with Brendel's son on cello The Engegård Quartet was formed in 2006 in Lofoten, Norway, under the midnight sun, and this is the third volume in its string quartet series, following Volume 1 with Haydn's D major quartet, Leif Solberg and Grieg (2L53SACD) and Volume 2 with Beethoven's "Harp", Nordheim and Bartók's Third (2L071SACD). The programme comprises Haydn's Op. 77 No. 1, from the last set of quartets he wrote, at the request of Prince Lobkowitz; Nordheim's duo Duplex, which the composer described as "a play of contrasts and extremes" (in three movements, "Energico", "Fluente" and "Lento cantando - Energico", written for Stefan Barratt-Due and Soon-Mi Chung, the married couple who run a music school in Oslo, and one of the most immediately approachable of all Nordheim's works); and Bartók's Fifth Quartet, which Engegård was introduced to by Sándor Végh, the music director who had known the composer personally, during his time as concertmaster of the Camerata Academica in Salzburg. The members are Arvid Engegård (b. 1963), first violin, founder and artistic director of the Lofoten International Chamber Music Festival; Atle Sponberg (b. 1964), second violin, concertmaster of the Norwegian Radio Orchestra since 1996; and Juliet Jopling, viola, principal of the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra and holder of a master's degree in economics from Trinity College, Cambridge (on this album she also shares editing duties with 2L). From this third volume the cellist is Adrian Brendel (b. 1976), son of Alfred Brendel. He was educated at Winchester College and Cambridge University and studied with the Swedish cellist Frans Helmerson, teacher of Truls Mørk and a professor at the Cologne conservatory. In 1995 he co-founded the festival Music at Plush with the conductor William Lacey in the village of Plush in Dorset, south-west England; held every summer, it has welcomed artists such as Alfred Brendel, Imogen Cooper and the Vertavo Quartet.
