With his symphonies, Danish composer Rued Langgaard created 16 very different versions of what a symphony can be. His captivating, complex genius allowed for every imaginable idiom and a plethora of styles, ranging from grandiose late Romanticism to the purest absurdism.
This box set is the first collected recording of Langgaard's 16 symphonies based on the critical edition of the scores; recordings that demonstrate in spectacular sound quality Langgaard's masterful command of the orchestra and his ecstatic view of the art: Mr. Dausgaard's zealous advocacy elicits polished, compelling performances that live up to Langgaard's motto: 'Long live beauty,' wrote the New York Times."
