Clearly you have a flair for stylistic analysis, which is one of the most difficult aspects of historical musicological work.

Beginning of Dis-mol suite for 13-course baroque lute, UUB Imhs 20:13


Stockholm University

During the period 1984 to 1992 I studied musicology at Stockholm University. I received my Master’s degree in 1991.


Royal College of Music

Since there were no lute courses in Sweden at the time, I went to London during the period 1986 to 1987 to study the lute at the Royal College of Music. The specific course I took was the Early Music Course.

Royal College of Music, London

I also attended continuo classes at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
