Chorals and Dances (2023)
- Edition Wilhelm Hansen Copenhagen (World)
Written for Lapland Chamber Orchestra and John Storgårds
Programme Note
In the piece Chorals and Dances, I have taken extracts of the musical material used in the organ piece Birds and Chorals. Chorals and Dances is written for the Lapland Chamber Orchestra and my good friend John Storgårds. In the instrumentation, I have been inspired by the organ.

Reviews
A different approach to the format [of chamber orchestra, ed.] was shown by the festival's leader, composer Sunleif Rasmussen, who transformed the sound of Faroese Eurasian oystercatchers and starlings into a refined, bizarre nature concert in the piece "Chorals and Dances"
