About

Many important Baroque composers and their music found their way to Denmark – thanks not least to the music-loving King Frederik IV.

This CD presents a unique musical panorama of the King's court music and combines concertos by Christoph Graupner, Johann Adolph Scheibe and Johann Gottlieb Graun with newly discovered dance music for the King’s daughter, Princess Charlotte Amalie, reconstructed for this world premiere recording by Danish recorder virtuoso Bolette Roed and the Polish Baroque ensemble Arte dei Suonatori.

The Danish recorder player Bolette Roed is known to European and American concert-goers as an adventurous soloist and as the enthusiast behind many striking musical projects in both early, contemporary and even traditional folk music.

This is her debut soloist recording, on which she has collaborated with the award-winning Polish Baroque ensemble Arte dei Suonatori, presenting her own discovery from the Danish Royal Treasury.

Awards and reviews

Awards Issue 2013

[Roed's] playing is cleanly articulated and stylish. This is not a particularly virtuoso programme for her, and the well-judged primus inter pares balance with the ever-excellent Polish string players of Arte dei Suonatori eloquently reflects the fact.

11th November 2013

[Roed's] style of playing is flexible and relaxed, and she produces a warm yet clear sound. The cooperation with Arte dei Suonatori, known for its engaging performances, is quite successful...an attractive proposition to all lovers of the recorder.

Early Music Today

The playing by both the Danish soloist and the Polish string band is excellent.
