Last time we had a thread about this composer, I remarked with some interest that there was a string quartet in ms parts digitized at a library, etc., etc. ..

There are now, I see, actually interesting if sometimes brief articles about these works- piano concerto, incidental music, 2 symphonies, his string quartet (Op.6), etc.- over at https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hjalmar_Borgstr%C3%B8m (Dutch Wikipedia) - which as much as any language-Wikipedia is building a database of articles of works-by-composer- for example(!!) they have articles on practically every work by some guy named Christian Sinding, too, including that 3rd violin concerto I had never heard of and now have because of cpo, etc.

Some of the articles are quite brief but the thing about Wikipedia is that if you know the language, it's meant to be improvable :) Some good stuff there @ nl-Wikip if you haven't browsed it. (Ah well, probably should split this post. Sorry...)
