Anna Kalk Quartet

The Anna Kalk Quartet is a dynamic ensemble formed in May 2023. Although it’s one of her newest formations, the four of them have been playing music together since a couple of years.

The compositions are introspections on the darker sides of life, the struggles, and the bitterness. Expressed through the warm and comforting sounds of the quartet, the solemn nature of the topics is met with equanimity and strength.

The quake of a transition, the melancholy of an ending, or the uncertainty of a new beginning. All this and more is felt in the music of Anna Kalk, realised by an expert group of sensitive musicians.

Album coming in January 2025.
