1774 – The Year of the Symphony
One year. Four symphonies. Four different worlds.

Sat 24. May 4 pm at The Black Diamond, Denmark

Sun 25. May 7 pm at Musikhuset Aarhus, Denmark

In 1774, the symphony was undergoing a transformation. Once a mere curtain-raiser for operas and oratorios, it was now stepping into the spotlight as a genre in its own right—ambitious, expressive, and full of surprises.

Concerto Copenhagen invites you back to a pivotal year in music history, where four very different composers each offered their own take on what a symphony could be.

From the dazzling elegance of the Mannheim school in Johann Stamitz’s symphony, to the raw drama of Haydn’s Sturm und Drang period. From C.P.E. Bach’s wildly expressive and unpredictable musical language to Mozart’s luminous clarity in his A major symphony—this program reveals how richly diverse the symphonic landscape already was in the mid-18th century.

Four works composed or premiered in the same year. Each one a world of its own. A snapshot of a genre on the rise.

Program:

Carl Stamitz: Symfoni i Es-dur, Op.9 Nr.6
Joseph Haydn: Symfoni nr.52 i c-moll

Pause

Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach: Symfoni i D-dur, Wq.183/1
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Symfoni nr.29 i A-dur, KV.201

Endnu en dag ved dit vindue, mig om alt det, du ikke nåede. Jeg træder frem med glæde.

Another day at your window, reminding me of all you never got to do. I step forward with joy.

Det er cirkulært og feminint og følsomt og kaotisk – og det må det gerne være. Mit system er øst og vest, en rejse der går helt tilbage til 2017, hvor jeg lavede mit sidste album og brød alt ned i den gamle form. Siden da har jeg forsøgt at finde glæden ved den rene skabelse på nye måder – skridt for skridt.

Projekt efter projekt har rejst sig og er faldet fra hinanden. Jeg kunne egentlig godt tænke mig at åbne op for den proces. Hvad er det egentlig, der er sket i alle de år? Jeg har nok været forsigtig. Måske også bange for at dele noget, før det føltes færdigt. Derfor er der opstået et gab – mellem dengang og nu, mellem enten og hverken. Og måske har jeg i det glemt at bruge nogle af de menneskelige egenskaber, jeg faktisk længes efter at bringe i spil.

Man åbner en dør og giver det plads. Jeg har ikke tilladt mig selv at kaste mig ud i den flod – men jeg føler mig klar til det nu. Tror jeg.

Den gamle verden fylder stadig. Den verden, hvor det pæne ansigt og det perfekte produkt var idealet. Siden har det været én lang proces. Konstant bevægelse. Det er spændende, men også svært at finde formen. Alt fra musik til meditationer og kanaliseringer – det vil gerne noget, men det er svært at samle. Nu prøver jeg.

It’s circular and feminine and sensitive and chaotic—and that’s exactly how it’s allowed to be. My system is east and west, a journey that goes all the way back to 2017, when I made my last album and broke everything down in its old form. Since then, I’ve been trying to rediscover the joy of pure creation—in new ways, step by step.

Project after project has risen and fallen apart. I’ve been thinking about opening up that process. What has actually happened in all those years? I’ve probably been cautious. Maybe even afraid to share anything before it felt finished. So a gap has opened up—between then and now, between either and neither. And in that space, I think I forgot to use some of the human qualities I actually long to bring forward.

You open a door and make space for it. I haven’t really allowed myself to dive into that river—but I feel ready now. I think.

The old world still lingers. The one where the polished face and the finished product had to be perfect. Since then, it’s been a constant process. Continuous motion. It’s exciting, but also hard to know how to hold it all. From music to meditations to channelings—it all wants something. But it’s hard to bring it together. Now I try.

I just simplified my subscription models on here, so now there's only The Stream and The River. The Stream is free to follow whereas The River includes posts, but also ALL releases I am allowed to put on here. Back catalog is being ported and future releases will be put up for pre-release for subscribers of the The River.

Over and out.

Så er det i dag at „En Helt Ny Mulighed“ udkommer på CD og udover hele internettet! Jeg skrev det første nummer til pladen i januar 2024 og det sidste i januar 2025. Så den har været et års tid undervejs. Vi kommer omkring misfornøjelse printere, digitalt slavearbejde, tidsrejser, hamstring af toiletpapir og meget mere! Rigtig god fornøjelse!

On Friday I will finally release my album and the last episode of Generations will be published. Here you will get a last piece of my conversation with Anna Emma Haudal about our creative exchange and the song understanding, which I wrote with Silas before Anna Emma first made contact. This song strangely embraces Martha's story, but the lyrics were already written before I had been given the assignment.
Today the song is about Martha, myself and maybe a little about all of us and the secrets we carry with us.
You can hear the song in its full length, along with the other songs on the album from Thursday midnight and don't forget to watch Generations and the touching finale on DRtv from Friday and on Sunday on Flow
