The Danish String Quartet's new album is a retracing of musical pathways across the North Sea, a journey through the sounds of traditional music from Northern Europe. It follows on from Last Leaf, the Danish String Quartet's much-loved 2017 release, which was Classical Album of the Year at NPR and a best of the year selection at publications from the New York Times to Gramophone. Keel Road underlines the group's statement that "folk tunes are not just a part of our repertoire, but an important element of our identity as musicians."
