Bjarke Mogensen (accordion)

Danish National Chamber Orchestra, Rolf Gupta

Danish Bjarke Mogensen (b. 1985) is the new star of the accordion in a country where there are already proud accordion traditions.

On this CD Bjarke is accompanied by the Danish National Chamber Orchestra conducted by Rolf Gupta in new Danish accordion concertos by Per Nørgård, Ole Schmidt, Anders Koppel and Martin Lohse – the last two written specifically for the young soloist.

“Bjarke Mogensen is an astonishment on record. Once heard, never forgotten” The Arts Journal, New York

“The accordion tradition is flourishing in Denmark...Mogensen benefits from spirited and attentive playing by the Danish National Chamber Orchestra, enhanced by Rolf Gupta's attentive direction...the Da Capo sound securing a well-nigh ideal balance of soloist and ensemble.” Gramophone Magazine, July 2012

Sjælland String Quartet

The Danish composer Anders Koppel (b. 1947) has one foot firmly planted in the European classical music tradition, and the other in world music, rock and jazz. On this album the two worlds meet when the Sjælland String Quartet are joined by Koppel’s son, the jazz icon Benjamin Koppel to perform the quintet for mezzo-saxophone and strings, which can be heard for the first time on this CD.
