Edition·S – music¬sound¬art publishes art music for the classical and experimental music scene.

We represent our composers through the publication of scores, parts, electronic media, graphic formats and interdisciplinary expression. TARGET GROUPS
Our main customers and partners are professionals on the global classical and experimental music scene. We work with musicians, conductors, ensembles, orchestras, festivals, record companies, producers, media & technology innovators and art music pr

esenters across all continents. CATALOGUE
Our catalogue comprises more than 2,400 works composed between the mid 19th Century and the present time by Danish composers or composers that are permanent residents in Denmark. Our catalogue includes 20th Century classics such as Carl Nielsen and Rued Langgaard, but also young, experimenting composers fresh from the Royal Danish Academy of Music. MUSICAL PROFILE
We believe in focused artistic selection, strong personal expression, visionary musical thinking and in the power of art music to make a lasting difference for those who experience it. TALENT DEVELOPMENT
Empowering young, talented artists to live a professional life on the art music scene is one of our main objectives and therefore we enter working-relationships with composers from and early age to ensure the talent of future generations. EMBRACING IT ALL
We embrace in principle a composer’s entire artistic output, also when this reaches beyond the boundaries of what is traditionally seen as music. While a lot of composers work in traditional settings with solo, chamber, orchestral and dramatic musical forms, a growing number also drift onto other artistic scenes or come from starting points other than the traditional route provided by an academic education. They work with sound installations, electronic listening music, interactive performance, modern dance, experimental game soundtracks and more. And as the art scene thus changes, as the artists move along, so do we.

“I have chosen to give the soloist a different role – a kind of pathfinder who can help us find our way.” Eva Noer Kondrup's Horn Concerto will be premiered on 27 March, and the inspiration partly comes from her reflections on the climate crisis.

“I feel like we’re neck-deep in trouble, to put it bluntly. [...] We need to find new values to live by, and that can only happen if we let our thoughts take flight, look far beyond our own horizon, and think freely.”

A new piece by Line Tjørnhøj, SORG, will be premiered on March 8 by the Aarhus Chamber Orchestra / Aarhus Kammerorkester with soprano soloist and conductor Johanne Sofie Bech Madsen.

Line Tjørnhøj has written SORG (GRIEF) - a lament for soprano and orchestra - inspired by Anne Marie Carl-Nielsen's relief Egil Skallagrimsson riding home with his drowned son's body (1889).

The background to Anne Marie Carl-Nielsen's relief was the loss of her older brother when she was 9 years old. In SORG, Tjørnhøj has used, among other things, an interview with Anne Marie Carl-Nielsen as a sonic and melodic foundation for the instrumentation of the work.

Many of the composers in our catalogue favor creating works with non-traditional instrumentation. These compositions range in style and structure with some composers utilizing electronics and novel instrument constructions, while others highlight the expressive possibilities of the human body, face and voice.

Have a look at our selection of works that do not fall neatly into a specified category of instrumentation and in fact challenge how music should be defined.

Else Marie Pade og det åndelige

Nye afsnit af podcasten Kunstpauser! Else Marie Pade er bedst kendt for at være pioner inden for dansk elektronisk musik. Mindre kendt er det, at troen var en rød tråd igennem hele hendes kunstneriske virke og liv. Pade var katolik, og troen åbenbarer sig som overraskende farverig, dybt lidenskabelig og sanselig i hendes værker. I tre nye afsnit af Kunstpauser fortæller musikforsker og Else Marie Pade-ekspert Ingeborg Okkels om Pades kamp som kvinde og komponist i midten af det 20. århundrede og om troen som forløsende kraft. 🎧 Læs mere og lyt: https://www.dacapo-records.dk/da/nyheder/lyt-til-podcastserien-kunstpauser
