About

A feast of previously unpublished broadcast recordings, focused on music for the stage and including much repertoire otherwise unrecorded. The main work is a three-act comedy by Frederick Rung, telling the story of The Three-Cornered Hat with a light touch and delightful duets and arias. Rare overtures, suites and scenes fill out a rich portrait of the Danish operatic scene in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, completed by a pair of powerful mid-century orchestral pieces.

Awards and reviews

November 2022

Jensen can be heard here in a raft of operatic material or in music that aspires to the theatrical condition. He seldom fell below a certain standard and maintains discipline and energy throughout a long and engrossing programme. Fine notes and transfers as per usual from this source.
