"A KIND OF MUSIC WHICH NEITHER BELONGS IN THE JAZZCLUB NOR IN THE CONCERTHALL - BUT FITS IN ALL OF THEM!" KSQ scratches, grooves, screams, sighs, rocks. On the fine steel, prepared horsehair and old woods of antique string instruments, KSQ speaks its own unique sound-language, based on the roots of the traditional stringquartet sound, yet constantly crossing borders into other musical genres, such as jazz, pop and others. Crunchy grooves made with special techniques on the instrument, spherical sound-clouds, folk-like melodies and crazy improvisations combine in an extremely varied world of colour and mood. The music for Kaleidoscope String Quartet, written by violinist Simon Heggendorn, parallels clearly the processes of today in that Retro-trends and new concepts are continually creating new styles and mixtures in every kind of art. Modern, contemporary and visionary at the same time.
