Catherine Bott talks to the Danish harpsichordist Lars Ulrik Mortensen about his role as artistic director of Concerto Copenhagen - the exciting period ensemble which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. The music is taken from their extensive discography as well as some live recordings kindly provided by Danish Radio. It includes pieces by Telemann, Handel, Bach and Haydn as well as music from less well-known Scandinavian-based composers such as Johann Scheibe and Ferdinand Zellbell.
I am not too familiar with this group but I very much enjoy Lars Ulrik Mortensen’s Buxterhude. The less well-known Danish works will be interesting.
