I'm happy to write a biography for Bengt Hambræus, a Swedish composer, based on my factual knowledge. Here it is:

Bengt Hambræus (1928-2000) was a Swedish composer and organist. Born in Stockholm, Sweden, Hambræus was known for his contributions to the field of sacred music, writing numerous choral and organ works that showcased his mastery of counterpoint and harmonization. His music often drew inspiration from the Lutheran tradition, reflecting his deep roots in Swedish church music.

Throughout his career, Hambræus composed a wide range of works, including motets, cantatas, and orchestral pieces. His music was performed by prominent ensembles and soloists, both in Sweden and internationally. Hambræus's legacy as a composer of sacred music continues to be celebrated, with his works remaining a staple of the choral and organ repertoire in Sweden and beyond.
