About

Peter Heise (1830–1879) is Denmark’s peerless master of song, yet his string quartets lived for decades in the shadows. This complete 3-CD set brings together the Nordic String Quartet’s entire survey, including world-premiere recordings of Nos. 1–6. Alongside the previously released first volume, these works reveal Heise’s musical imagination in all its brilliance, performed with a spacious, lyrical sensibility attuned to the composer’s distinctive poetic touch.
