Royal Danish Orchestra
Kirsten Hermansen, soprano
Erik Sjøberg, baritone
Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra
Thomas Jensen, conductor
Carl Nielsen, Sibelius and Niels Viggo Bentzon
Thomas Jensen in his element: a trio of classic Nielsen recordings, plus a first-time release for broadcast performances of Sibelius' Third Symphony and two pivotal works by Jensen’s countryman and contemporary, Niels Viggo Bentzon. Newly remastered direct from the original tapes, these live recordings find Jensen on fiery form, giving incisive interpretations well suited to the formal innovations of these masterpieces of Danish and Finnish modernism.
