The last three symphonies of Carl Nielsen, very well interpreted

Carl Nielsen was born in 1865 in Nørre Lyndelse (Denmark). His father, a painter construction worker, was also very popular as a village musician, and he learned to play the violin to his children. In 1879, he left his family to occupy a place in the military band cornet Odense, where he will stay for four years before joining Copenhagen for his musical training. He died in 1931 in Copenhagen.

Among his major aeuvres, one can particularly note a "Symphonic Suite" for piano, as well as preludes for organ, two sonatas for violin and piano, five string quartets, a "Serenata In Vano" for clarinet, bassoon, horn, cello and double bass, a wind quintet, a violin concerto, a concerto for flute and a clarinet concerto, six symphonies, three operas, "Snefrid," "Saul and David" and "Maskarade", choral music, as well as melodies for solo voice.
