Magnus Andersson is a Swedish classical musician known for his deep dive into historical performance practices and early music revival. Specializing in lute, guitar, and viola da gamba, he’s built a reputation for breathing life into Renaissance and Baroque compositions while collaborating with ensembles like *Hortus Musicus* and *Barockorchester Bremen*. His recent releases, such as *Nürnberger Lautenschläger* and collaborations on works by Conrad Newsidler and Adolf Blindhamer, showcase his knack for unearthing lesser-known gems from the 16th and 17th centuries. Andersson also flexes his versatility in modern contexts, appearing on recordings like Henze’s politically charged *El Cimarrón* and bringing fresh energy to Bach rearrangements for recorder. Whether he’s reviving dance suites or tackling avant-garde chamber works, his playing balances scholarly precision with a palpable joy for storytelling through strings.
