   About Zapp String Quartet

Welcome at our Myspace page!

Feel free to look around at www.zappstringquartet.com for the latest information, audio, video, press and our up to date playlist!

ZAPP String Quartet is an extraordinary string quartet specialized in playing improvised music, jazz, rock, ethnic music, contemporary music and all kinds of combinations of these styles.

Classical music has a long string quartet tradition, but ZAPP adds its own groovy way of playing and percussion techniques to it, which enables them to sound like a heavy rock band, a Bulgarian folk group or a bebopping jazz band for that matter.

All the members of ZAPP have a background in improvisation and they all compose or arrange music for the quartet. Additionally, composers from the Netherlands and abroad regularly compose for ZAPP

New Project: PECULIAR

In 2008 Zapp presents an American-Canadian program in which the quartet will play new exiting compositions (or arrangements) by John Scofield, Mike Keneally, Allan Gilliland, Brent Fischer, Mark Feldman and many more.

There are a lot of concerts comming up starting at the end of this summer! Tour info at: www.zappstringquartet.com.

Hi there!
The Danish composer Per Nørgård's music has been much on my mind the past few years. Arguably the most important now living Scandinavian composer also has a remarkable output for the guitar. I spent a couple of years working with the composer on this repertoire, spanning from 1973 to 2000, in order to embrace the emerging performance practice associated with his work.

I have just uploaded 10 new tracks, all taken from "Tales From the North", my double CD box with the complete guitar works of Danish composer Per Nørgård. Also, in my latest blog you will find recent reviews of this release.

For further reading about the composer, this is an excellent website, with articles by a series of scholars and performers that have dedicated much study to his work:
