  • Concert in Lidköping

    Last week we played in the lovely Lidköping Konsertförening, and got a really nice review you can read here:

  • Grimeton

    Den gamla radiostationen Grimeton var en helt fantastisk miljö att spela flöjt i. Dessutom var vi svältfödda på live-upplevelser, både flöjtkvartetten och Lisa Nordström. Så här lät det under helgen 15-17 maj, när vi sjösatte projektet Decomparmaids tillsammans. Mer roligt och en film kommer senare.

    The old radio station Grimeton – a totally amazing venue for flute playing. And both flute quartet and Lisa Nordström were very eager to play, and meet IRL after a long spring semester without any concerts. This is how we sounded during a weekend in May. More to come later – possibly a film!
