The god of wisdom (and maybe music)

Mimir Chamber Music Festival draws musicians from around the world.

Spearheaded by TCU violinist Curt Thompson, the third annual Mimir Chamber Music Festival drew six musicians from top orchestras around the world to serve as guest artists and faculty members for a week to some 20 student musicians chosen from across the country. Grammy Award nominee and clarinetist Martin Frost and his brother, pianist Johann Frost, traveled from Sweden to represent the musical traditions of Sweden, from whence the festival’s name was drawn — Mimir was the Norse god of wisdom.
