Mosaique Danoise: Works by Bentzon, Henriques, Koppel, Mortensen, & Riisager

Danish Dynamite! The Danish Quartet, established in the 1930s, enjoyed fame for over two decades in Denmark and abroad. Many composers wrote music for their nontraditional setting, including Niels Viggo Bentzon, Fini Henriques, Herman D. Koppel, Otto Mortensen, and Knudåge Riisager. With one exception (Riisager), all pieces on this album are world premiere recordings performed by today's highly ranked and award-winning Swedish-Danish musicians: Janne Thomsen (flute), Cecilia Zilliacus (violin), Andreas Brantelid (cello), and Bengt Forsberg (piano).
