FRANK CRAMER
Ludolf Nielsen's (1876 - 1939) was one of the leading Danish
composers in the first decades of the twentieth century. This
recording includes his best-known symphony as well as first
recordings of two ´Nordic-coloured´ works. As a Danish Late
Romantic Ludolf Nielsen forms a link between National
Romanticism and the many new impressions coming from
abroad at the turn of the century.
reviews
'The playing of the South Jutland Symphony Orchestra is
perfect, and the conductor gives the impression that he has
been occupied all his life with nothing else but the work of
Ludolf Nielsen. I think this recording of Symphony Nr.2
sounds much better than the one recorded with Ole Schmidt.'
High Fidelity (DK), December 1997
