from 'the garden of Denmark' Nielsen's music: vast and incomprehensibly un-Danish in scope, yet only understandable in its utterly Danish - or maybe even utterly Fiinen - context
(Nielsen catalogue in Odense Music Library)
In March, the new Carl Nielsen Concert Hall and Museum opened in Odense, on the small island of Fyn - Nielsen's birthplace. With scholars, archivists and guides,
Michael Oliver tours the museum and unearths a different Nielsen, the man of the soil, steeped in folk-traditions and a love of the elements.

The 'authenticity' of early music, once the pursuit of a coterie, is now a vastly popular phenomenon. But how far is it possible to be authentic? Is a historically faithful approach to performance desirable? Is it merely a 20th-century neurosis or is it a major threat to the traditions of the musical estabishment?
Nicholas Kenyon discusses these and other questions with Julianne Baird , Howard Mayer Brown ,
Reinhardt Goebel , Nikolaus Harnoncourt , Christopher Hogwood , Gustav Leonhardt , Nicholas McGegan , Robert Morgan ,
Christopher Page , Richard Taruskin and Robert Winter.
