Den Danske Guitarkvartet is an established ensemble that has spent many years developing new repertoire for an unusual line-up: four classical guitars.
With 24 strings in play, the quartet creates a sound world and dynamic that go well beyond the classical guitar as a solo instrument. The programme ranges from original guitar quartet works and arrangements of classical masterpieces to brand-new music written specifically for the ensemble. The quartet's debut album, Chinese Whispers, takes its title from a piece written for them by the Faroese songwriter Teitur.
The quartet is made up of Mikkel Lynggaard, Kristian Lager, Thea Vesti Pedersen and Martin Stæhr Haugaard.
