“… a wonderful depth of field, dramatic intent and a palette of surreal colors.”
-Laurence Vittes
OPUS13
Named after Mendelssohn’s youthful and passionate A Minor Quartet, Op. 13 — the first piece they ever played together —Opus13 comprises Norwegian violinists Sonoko Miriam Welde and Edvard Erdal, violist Albin Uusijärvi and cellist Daniel Thorell, both from Sweden.
In the spring of 2025, Opus13 took home First Prize and numerous special prizes at both the Wigmore International String Quartet Competition and the Bordeaux International String Quartet Competition.
In addition to performing the standard string quartet repertoire, Opus13 are passionate ambassadors of Nordic classical and contemporary music, frequently programming works by Grieg, Stenhammar, Tarrodi, Byström, and Fagerlund.
