I really enjoy performing both the serious programs and also the concerts that are all about joy and celebration. Champagne and Danish “kransekage” in […]
Yesterday we had the pleasure to perform our concert program with new songs by Danish and Swedish composers.

Here are some pictures from the two concerts in […]

The advertisement outside of the hall was definitely the biggest one […]
I am very excited about being back from my 6 month maternity leave and begin the concert season of this spring. It has been a real privilege to have this time with our first-born, but I have also missed the music stage. The first concert just took place, with my old friend and college […]
