It is simply astonishing to find on our air lines a young person who proves to be so unusually knowledgeable and inventive in terms of imaginatively rich musical nature, the critic and composer Gösta Nystroem wrote about the 24-year-old Ingvar Lidholm in 1945. Through sixty years of creation, Lidholm has increasingly entered the role of the central figure of Swedish art music, a romantic in constant transformation in search of simplicity and maximum expression. Virtuoso's art of composition, antiquity and Strindberg form the sounding board for his almost classical choral works, musical drama and orchestral music.
