CARL NIELSEN
1865-1931
Each instrument is like a person who sleeps, whom I have to waken to life.
Carl Nielsen grew up in a rural community on the Danish island of Funen, close to the birthplace of Hans Christian Andersen , and he remained a countryman at heart with a countryman's acute powers of observation: he regarded music as the sound of life. Like Andersen, he possessed deep insight into human personality and temperament, and it is this aspect of his music that this week's programmes explore.
