About the Concert

Who doesn’t love a good fairy tale? Join Rudersdal Chamber Players on a journey into the world of fairy tales and music.

Schumann’s Märchenerzählungen transports us into the world of the Brothers Grimm, while festival composer Rafał Augustyn has set H.C. Andersen’s The Shadow to music. Actor Thomas Bang will read excerpts between the movements.

Finally, you can hear a Romantic piano quartet by Guillaume Lekeu, who died in 1894 at the age of just 24. The quartet was his final work – a young composer’s swan song.

The concert will be broadcast on DR P2.

About the Concert

Rudersdal Chamber Players perform music by Dvořák and Lili Boulanger, as well as two world premieres by this year’s festival composers, Veronika Voetmann and Rafał Augustyn.

From 2:15–2:45 pm, you can hear Veronika Voetmann talk about her experiments with different genres and her love of the cello and folk music.

About the Concert

This year, we are introducing a special concert format for our youngest listeners.

Children aged 6–12 and their parents and grandparents are invited to experience a movement from Dvořák’s Piano Quartet, woven into a lively story about the composer, who loved trains and travelled all the way to America.

Afterwards, we will serve juice and something sweet. Duration: approx. 45 minutes.

Before the concert, it is possible to use the swimming pool. Tickets for the pool can be purchased on site.

Admission to the children’s concert is free.

The following day, 16 August, the complete work will be performed at the festival concert.
