Info for Carl Nielsen Symphony No. 2



The history of the Royal Danish Orchestra dates back to 1448. This makes it the oldest orchestra in the world, and Carl Nielsen is one of its important former members. His 16 years of experience as the orchestra's second violinist moulded him as a composer, and it was this ensemble that introduced his symphonies to the world. From the "threatening storm of genius" of the First Symphony to the disarming strangeness of the Sixth, Nielsen's symphonies are among the most important of their genre. They are heard here in recordings made with a league of conductors whose connection to Denmark and Nielsen's music is unrivalled.
