The Danish composer Jexper Holmen will present a 4 hours playlist of the most beautiful, other-worldly, and entertaining fugues from the medieval era to modern days, from Gombert over J. S. Bach, Clara Schumann, Richard Strauss and Verdi to Vincent Lo.

Fugues present a wide variety of expressions from the deeply serious to the most playful, and they unfold in many medias from solo instruments to orchestra music, operas, choir music and cellphone signals, also from composers whom you don’t normally associate with fugues.

We will start at 13:00 in Bådehuset for one hour of deep-listening of “Basic Fugues”. After 14:15, the audiences have the freedom of choosing between two more deep listening sessions in Bådehuset – “lesser known fugues” and “advanced fugues”, or quality coffee, social hang-out, and mini-market with fugue music in the background, in “Lydatelier”, which is just 10 meters across Bådehuset.

You can purchase good coffee,…
