Swedish composer Torbjörn Iwan Lundquist (1920-2000). Lundquist represents to a far greater extent than his predecessors Cowell and Cage the traditional view of percussive instruments as a source of sound expressive of power, hardness and incisiveness. He blended the great European orchestral tradition with neomodernism and jazz.Conductor and artistic director at the Drottningholm Caste Theatre between 1949 and 1956. Hugo Alfvén Prize 1992.
