When the bicentenary of the birth of the Danish fairytale writer Hans Christian Andersen was celebrated in 2005, the Danish National Symphony Orchestra/ DR and its chief conductor Thomas Dausgaard were at the forefront with a magnificent musical celebration.

This CD release testifies to the meeting between Andersen's immortal story telling art and two leading Danish composers of our time, Per Nørgard & Bent Sørensen who interpret the writer in very different ways in two works, each originating in one of Andersen's tales.

The CD offers an exciting live recording of the two works both performed by the Danish National Symphony Orchestra and Choirs/ DR. The soloist parts are performed by - among others- the outstanding sopranos Inger Dam-Jensen and Helene Gjerris and tenor Gert Henning-Jensen.

The choral works of Danish composer Per Nørgård form a constant strand through the composer's oeuvre and demonstrate the full spectrum of his art: from Nordic sounds, echoing Sibelius and Holmboe, to avant-garde and post-modernism - always coloured by his preoccupation with the organic, the multilayered and the drama of interference.

These challenging but beautiful works are here interpreted by the twelve singers of Scandinavia's leading vocal ensemble Ars Nova Copenhagen conducted by Tamás Vetö
