"Sofie Haag, an amazing producer. I worked with Sofie at the Royal Dramatic Theatre in Stockholm, were she produced "Valerie Solanas will be president of America". It was a big and demanding production. A large ensemble, newly written play and a strong minded cast. Sofie managed us with a strong, calm and professional approach. She is fast-paced and fun, as well as fearless in managing conflicts when needed. Many work situations would be a lot more fun and enjoyable if there were more producers like her in the world."
Noomi Rapace, Actor (Stieg Larsson movies, Sherlock Holmes 2, Prometheus)

"Sofie did an absolutely top class job and without her and From Sweden Productions the concert would not have been the success it was....I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone organizing an event at the highest level."
Lisa Peacock Concert Management Ltd
"Sofie Haag from From Sweden Productions was exceptionally helpful in arranging the talented and versatile group, Cantabile, for our 50th Member Celebration that took place at No.11 Cavendish Square on the 12th January 2011. The event was a great success, and the performance by Cantabile, a major part of it. I was impressed by the way that Sofie managed the arrangements leading up to our decision to feature them, and on the night. I can thoroughly recommend her to any other events organiser, or venue, looking for unique entertainment for their own event."
René Dee, CEO, The Westminster Collection
"How wonderful to work with a brilliant and intelligent person! Sofie Haag proved to be a gem when we set out to do a Wigmore Hall Christmas Concert under the From-Sweden logo. She received a massive workload, the crucial question of sponsorship, keeping the artists happy and planning in general, and indefatigable she was! I learned that Sofie is a reliable and imaginative person, with an underlying positive personality. She simply does not give up! Four months before the concert that took place in the leading hall for chamber music in the UK, her goal was a sell-out. Four months later she had achieved it. We had a sold out house. As one of the 'happy artists' mentioned above, I extend my humble thanks."
Mats Lidström, Artistic Director and Cellist, Christmas From Sweden

MATS EDÉN, fiddler, folk and world musician/composer
Mats Edén a trendsetter
"Mats Edén is an outstanding fiddler with a firm foothold in the folk music tradition of Värmland, and is one of the most important figures in the development of folk music in Sweden since the 1070s. He is a musician who constantly challenges boundaries...and his influence as a trendsetter in the roles of fiddler, ensemble musician, composer and improviser within Swedish folk music is hard to overestimate."
