The Early Recordings Vol 2 features a number of Langgaard pioneers who presented piano, organ and vocal works in the period 1963-1974. In 1970, Noël Lee recorded the first LP of piano music by Langgaard; it is reissued here for the first time on CD. Organist Jørgen Ernst Hansen can be heard on Langgaard's Ribe Cathedral organ (1970). In the 1960s, Royal Theatre soloist, Bonna Søndberg recorded several songs and major vocal works for Danmarks Radio, a selection of which are released here for the first time. The album contains examples of the wide range of expression in Langgaard's music from 1909 to 1951.

Recorded in Denmark between 1963 and 1974.
