NOVO Quartet – like novo, “new.” The name reflects the curiosity and spirit of discovery that has already carried these four musicians, trained by Tim Frederiksen, to the podiums of the Geneva and Carl Nielsen competitions. Their debut album, Track 1, returns to their roots: Shostakovich’s String Quartet No. 8, the very first piece they studied together; HJERTEBLAD (literally “heart-leaf,” the seed’s first leaf) by Matias Vestergaard, which opened the door to contemporary repertoire; and Carl Nielsen’s First Quartet, a tribute to the “great Danish hero” and the starting point of an upcoming complete cycle.
Track 1 is therefore a tale of beginnings – above all, NOVO’s own, instantly establishing them as one of the most arresting ensembles of their generation. Through intense playing, flawless balance, and total commitment – and, above all, the magic unique to great quartets, where four distinct personalities merge into a single voice and let the music speak in its purest form.
