Engegård Quartet

Engegårdkvartetten is a popular Norwegian string quartet known for its incisive interpretations of the cornerstones of the standard quartet repertory, as well as works by both well-known and little-known Norwegian composers. Engegårdkvartetten (often billed as the Engegård Quartet in English-speaking countries) has toured heavily throughout Scandinavia, Europe, and the U.K. Engegårdkvartetten was founded in Lofoten, Norway, in 2005 by violinist Arvid Engegård. As of 2023, the other members were violinist Laura Custodio Sabas, violist Juliet Jopling, and cellist Adrian Brendel. The Engegårdkvartetten's first recording -- of quartets by Haydn, Grieg, and Solberg -- was issued in 2008. It has a growing catalog of recordings, including 2023's Johan Kvandal: Complete String Quartets.
