We welcome the acclaimed Danish Soprano, Else Torp, to the Gallery for a special recital of traditional Danish songs from the times of the Skagen Painters, beautifully linking sight with sound for Anna Ancher: Painting Light.
Initially specialised in baroque and early music, Else Torp is recognised as a major exponent of contemporary repertoire. In concert, she sings a selection of Danish and German Lied and performs distinctive works like William Walton’s Façade and Judith Weir’s King Harald’s Saga. She sang for the premiere of David Lang’s Ark Luggage with the Smith Quartet in 2012.
She has made some thirty recordings including a recital of melodies by C.E.F. Weyse, a CD devoted to the music of Ib Norholm with the guitarist Per Paalsson, The Little Match Girl Passion by David Lang and a highly-acclaimed CD of works by Heinrich Schütz with Ars Nova Copenhagen.
