Visited @claykeramikmuseumdanmark in Middelfart to see A Walk with a Dinosaur by @michaelgeertsen —a fascinating journey through ceramic imagination and art history. I was especially intrigued by the pieces inspired by the Russian avant-garde. As a great admirer of Kazimir Malevich, it was a joy to spot echoes of Suprematism in unexpected forms.

- At @hindsgavl_festival , violinist @___johan, cellist @andreasbrantelid_official , and pianist Christian Ihle Hadland performed piano trios by Erich Korngold and Maurice Ravel. Ravel’s Piano Trio in A minor was a highlight—especially the first and third movements, which unfolded with extraordinary beauty, quiet intensity, and lyrical depth. A rare moment of stillness in sound. (07/05/2025 15:05:08)
- Between concerts at @hindsgavl_festival, I went for a quick 10K run — from Funen to Jutland and back across the old Little Belt Bridge. A beautiful route with history, sea breeze, and just enough elevation to make the music afterwards feel even more rewarding. (07/05/2025 12:00:00)
- Two unforgettable French-themed concerts at @hindsgavl_festival: First, the @breeze_windquintet quintet with @paloma.kouider.pianist performed Roussel, Debussy, Farrenc, Connesson & Poulenc. The next morning, Kouider returned with Annelien van Wauwe for Pierné, Widor, Saint-Saëns & Poulenc. A celebration of 100 years of French flair for winds and piano. (07/05/2025 09:44:27)
- This morning at @hindsgavl_festival @kristofferhyldig performed Olivier Messiaen’s Vingt Regards sur l’Enfant-Jésus — a 2½ hour uninterrupted solo piano masterpiece. This deeply Catholic work, rich in mystical symbolism and sonic ecstasy, momentarily transported even a devout cultural Protestant into the heart of religious awe. A truly overwhelming experience.

- Yesterday’s late-night concert at @hindsgavl_festival was a revelation. @deniskozhukhin all-Liszt solo program culminated in an absolutely overwhelming performance of the B minor Sonata — a journey of drama, depth, and spiritual intensity. Rarely has the piano sounded so infinite. (07/04/2025 06:59:18)
- An inspiring afternoon at @hindsgavl_festival Festival! We began with Mozart’s Horn Quintet in E♭ Major, K.407, featuring Sibylle Mahni (horn) with Antje Weithaas (violin), Sào Soulez Larivière & Nicholas Swensen (violas), and Andreas Brantelid (cello). Then Felix Mendelssohn’s youthful masterpiece, his String Octet in E♭ Major, Op. 20 (composed at just 16), soared under Weithaas’s leadership: a fiery Allegro moderato, lyrical Andante, playful Scherzo, and triumphant Presto finale. Simply unforgettable! A huge congratulations to all! (07/03/2025 15:56:03)
- @hindsgavl_festival Festival 2025 has begun! And what a magnificent opening. The first concert featured a stellar string quartet: @snokvit and @adamkviolin (violins), @nicholasalgot_swensen (viola), and @andreasbrantelid_official (cello). They brought Haydn’s radiant String Quartet in A major, Op. 20 No. 6 to life, and then moved us with Schubert’s dark and gripping Death and the Maiden quartet. A perfect start to this year’s musical journey. (07/02/2025 22:48:54)
- Last night at @hindsgavl_festival, I had the joy of hearing @martinhelmchen perform Brahms’ monumental Piano Quintet in F minor, Op. 34—together with @antjeweithaas and @stephenwaarts (violins), @sao.lariviere_violist (viola), and @marieelisabethhecker (cello). A storm of lyricism, depth, and virtuosity. Music that lingers. (07/02/2025 22:32:01)
- “No Space for Bezos!” cry the protesters—but not a word about Lady Gaga or Elton John performing at his wedding. Is it hypocrisy or just selective outrage? Jo Ellison’s piece is a reminder that when it comes to billionaire pageantry, everyone plays their part. #BezosWedding #CulturalContradictions https://www.ft.com/content/1ea7433a-f821-4a79-997c-2b1f69ffafe3 (06/30/2025 06:16:56)
