Jakob Gade (1879-1963) – Danish composer and violinist – is world famous as the composer of Jalousie, Tango Tsigane. However, besides this celebrated concert piece, Gade left us a large number of melodious orchestral works in the popular music genres of his day, and composed several symphonic suites.
This re-issue of Odense Symphony Orchestra’s highly acclaimed Jakob Gade collection fully displays the composer’s sense of colourful orchestration and musical storytelling at its very best – in luminous new audio quality.
