Carl Nielsen (1865-1931) is Denmark's most famous composer. He studied with Niels Wilhelm Gade at Copenhagen Conservatory and went on study trips to Germany, Austria, Italy and France. Nielsen was court music director in Copenhagen and taught at the Royal Danish Conservatory. His works display strong counterpoint and polytonality as well as traditional melody shapes.

Dietrich Buxtehude's organ works are today in the standard repertoire for organists all over the world, but this is the first time an organist has engaged so intimately with Buxtehude by using the very instrument on which the works were composed. Dacapo Records' new Buxtehude series will consist of a total of six CDs, and besides the St. Mary's Church in Elsinore they will be recorded in the other two churches where the composer was employed, the S:ta Maria Church in Helsingborg and the Marienkirche in Lübeck.

Major league Danish indierock band. Formed 1991 by schoolmates Kasper, Mads & Asger initially as a band titled Nirvana, playing heavy blues. As the US Nirvana grew in popularity, the band was aware that they had to change name - they changed it to Kashmir, named after a song by one of their favourite bands, Led Zeppelin.Kashmir finished second in the 1993 Danish Rock Championship (the winner that year was Dizzy Mizz Lizzy), and the attention on the band rose. In 1994 Kashmir got their first record deal, on the new-formed record label Start, where their first album, Travelogue, was released. Later on, Kashmir signed a contract with Sony Denmark.

This great album has been originally released on Danish Parlophone label in 1969 and is usually considered as one of the best, late 60's rock records ever recorded in Scandinavia! This LP is best described as an early progressive rock effort with very electic mixture of blues, beat and heavy psychedelia - with superb and intensive guitar work throughout, some brass section phrases and solid drumming. Comparing their music to the bands like Cream, Taste, Love Sculpture, Cuby & The Blizzards and Beefeathers will definitely not be exaggerated. Unfortunately, it was the only title released under the Delta Blues Band name (apart from 1979 LP with one Billy Cross). This CD edition has been carefully remastered from the original, analogue source and sounds really great!
