Denmark Revisited - Danish choral works for mixed voices a cappella. The University Choir Lille MUKO and soprano Else Torp conducted by Jesper Grove Jørgensen. For many years now there has been a broad international interest in performing Danish choral works not least from the 20th century but often the Danish lyrics have been a hindrance in realising this goal outside Denmark. With this in mind we have thought it important to make Danish choral music more available through the release of selected works in which the Danish text is translated into English. With the present choice we have endeavoured to present works which fully demonstrate the wide range and originality ofDanish choral music: the particular lyrical Danish tone of Svend S. Schultz and Jørgen Jersild; the original simplicity of Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen; the characteristically Danish late romanticism of P.E. Lange-Müller and Rued Langgaard; and the music of composers with their own particular musical idiom such as Vagn Holmboe Bernhard Lewkovitch and Bo Holten. We have also tried to choose works with lyrics by writers that are specifically Danish in origin including Hans Christian Andersen Johannes V. Jensen and Tove Ditlevsen. We hope that this release will help to spread knowledge and understanding of Danish choral music outside Denmark. (Jesper Grove Jørgensen) Content P. E.

Bert Jansch was one of the most influential and unique guitarists to emerge from the British folk music scene of the sixties.His influence can be traced in the playing of Neil Young Jimmy Page Johnny Marr and countless others. Over the course of nearly fifty years he produced a prodigious body of work as a solo guitarist singer and songwriter as a member of the seminalfolk-baroque band Pentangle as a duo with his equally revered friend John Renbourn and in a variety of other ensemble situations. On The Guitar Of Bert Jansch Taught By Rolly Brown we explore a representative selection from the folk traditional and blues segment of his Guitar arrangements rangingfrom simple early folk Guitar settings like Running From Home to his most iconic sophisticated and original accompaniments(e.g. Reynardine Black Waterside). These are carefully arranged little gems and his virtuosity as a guitarist allowed him to have a very specific and beautifully wrought arrangement while still showing an ability to create a number of subtle variations which occurred in his recordings over the years. Rolly Brown first heard Bert's playing in the mid-60s and has been a fan ever since. Along with basic arrangements Rolly discusses variations introductions and endings where appropriate. Titles include Running From Home Blues Run The Game Strollin' Down The Highway In The Bleak Midwinter and more.
