Gudmundsen-Holmgreen / Astrand / Collon- Nachtmusik
This new release features concertante works from one of Denmark's most iconic composers and one of it's freshest new voices. Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen was the great maverick of contemporary Nordic music until his death in 2016. For Violin and Orchestra ventures into the jungle in classic Gudmundsen-Holmgreen style, leading us to consider our place in a world full of noises. Allan Gravgaard Madsen's double concerto Nachtmusik takes the opposite route, blossoming outwards from the microscopic examination of a single note. Danish National Symphony Orchestra concertmaster Christina Astrand brings both works to life, joined by her duo partner Per Salo in Nachtmusik written for them.

- Nachtmusik: I. Nachtstück (Live)
- Nachtmusik: II. Intermezzo (Live)
- Nachtmusik: III. Ständchen (Live)

- For Violin & Orchestra: II. Tempo 63
