With its conjoined interests in the classical quartet repertoire and the Nordic folk music tradition, the ensemble holds a unique place on the international chamber music scene. From the traditional repertoire comes Schubert’s magnificent final quartet, dating from June 1826. Following that the group moves into different repertoire that has become an original and welcome element in its programming.

Franz Schubert (1797-1828)
- - String Quartet in G D887
Interval
Bent Sørensen (b.1958)
- - Doppelgänger
Franz Schubert
- - Schwanengesang D957
    - Der Doppelgänger (arranged by Danish String Quartet)
