Intrada

Violinist, incessant chamber musician and prankster with a deeply religious vein – in 2019 composer Sven-Erik Bäck would have been 100 years old. He was a strong force in twentieth-century Swedish art music with a broad network of contacts, many collaborations and a considerable and original production as a composer. Together with legendary conductor Eric Ericson he researched and renewed choral music, above all in the sacred sphere.
