The Danish composer Axel Borup-Jorgensen (1924-2012) was one of the 20th century's great "silent individualists."Although largely self-taught, he was the first Danish composer who attended the Darmstadt Summer Courses forNew Music. Without a doubt, the avant-garde of the sixties exerted a strong influence on Borup-Jorgensen's soundworld, but he never embraced any specific "ism," following instead his own intuition and his extraordinary sense oforganizing sound.Borup-Jorgensen's handwritten scores are of almost calligraphic quality and beauty and reveal him to be a meticulouscraftsman and magician of tone color, traits on full display on this very special tribute in honor of the composer'scentenary.The vast majority of his work is devoted to chamber music. Here he enjoyed the freedom and inspiration to workclosely with the artists and explore new sonic possibilities of their instruments. This album is the final entry in adecade long documentation of the life and work of Axel Borup-Jorgensen's music, a project that has seen multiplecritical triumphs, innovative concert installations and even an award-winning video. The animated short film for hismasterpiece MARIN won OPUS Klassik AWARD as best DVD/Blu-ray as well as the Danish Radio P2 Prize forBest ALBUM.For those curious to explore the composer's unique style, this is an ideal entry point, featuring works from throughoutBorup-Jorgensen's creative journey, in equally diverse and colorful arrays, including his only woodwind quintetand a work employing junk yard percussion, performed by the leading Danish chamber orchestra the acclaimedEsbjerg Ensemble. Joining the Ensemble for this recording, the 8th album in OUR Recordings series with music byAxel Borup-Jorgensen, is the award-winning pianist Kristoffer Hyldig, and special guests, all captured in crystallineclarity in the DXD audio format by producer Mette Due.
