Nils Klöfver
Nils Klöfver is a prize-winning
Swedish guitarist based in London. Active both as a solo performer
and in ensembles, Nils is enjoying a busy freelance career with work
ranging from recording film and TV scores to appearing in concert
halls – stretching from London and around the UK to Japan.
Nils graduated from the Bachelor of Music (Hons) course at
the Royal College of Music in 2006 with a first class degree. In the
same year he also won first prize in the yearly Royal College of
Music Guitar Competition, made his debut at the Wigmore Hall and
appeared as a finalist in the distinguished Jörgen Rörby
competition in Sweden.
Apart from playing the standard
classical guitar Nils is also a keen alto-guitarist – an
eleven-string instrument merging together the best qualities from the
renaissance lute with the modern guitar. The alto-guitar is
particularly suitable for early music and presents a new way of
playing lute repertoire as a guitarist.
During his London
years Nils has performed frequently with appearances in concert
series, music festivals and in outreach work programmes in schools
and hospitals. Nils has appeared in The Wigmore Hall, St. John Smith
Square, The House of Commons, Downing Street, The Barbican Centre and
The Bolivar Hall. Last spring also included a performance celebrating
the Carl von Linnaeus tercentenary attended by Queen Silvia and King
Carl XVI Gustav, the royal family of Sweden.
