Few composers have had such an impact on Swedish music life as Tor Aulin (1866–1914). He studied violin and music theory in Stockholm 1877–83, and in Berlin 1884–86. In 1887 he founded the Aulin Quartet, which for more than 20 years played animportant role in broadening Swedish interest in chamber music. The quartet was often on tour with the composer Wilhelm Stenhammar at the piano.

1889–1902 Aulin was the leader of the orchestra at the Royal Opera in Stockholm.
