ABOUT

Four friends - four guitarists.  

Our aim is to share modern day music written or arranged for guitar quartet. In doing so we wish to explore new artistic ground and invite new audiences. Through collaborations with composers, artists and creators we are constantly in search for new exciting expressions and venues.

The music we perform is instrumental, often abstract, but also melodic. Together our four classical guitars create an acoustic world of resonance, in which both contemplation and lively energy has its place.

Rebell Gitarrkvartett was founded in 2019 during studies at the school of music, art and drama, Örebro University, but are currently based in Malmö. Since 2022 we act as Ensemble in Residence in collaboration with the institution Musik i Syd.

We believe in a world where contemporary classical music is alive, exciting and accessible for the broader audience. Therefore we constantly strive to collaborate with many different bookers of live music. Previous concert venues include bars, concert houses, clubs, churches, cinemas and festivals. 

Our repertoire is a mixture of original modern music for guitar quartet, as well as our own arrangements in the style of contemporary classical music, but also cross-genre concepts. We have premiered a number of pieces written for and dedicated to Rebell Gitarrkvartett, including original music by Stefan Levin, Annette Kruisbrink and Gabriel Stenborg.
