Edition Wilhelm Hansen

Edition Wilhelm Hansen *Making Music Better* | Largest Music Publisher in the Nordics | Leading Scandinavian Composers | Classical profile | Part of Wise Music Group Ratkje.

Edition Wilhelm Hansen blev grundlagt i 1857 og er i dag Nordens største independent musikforlag. Norden er på alle måder omdrejningspunktet i forlagets historie; toneangivende, klassiske nordiske komponister som Edvard Grieg, Jean Sibelius og Carl Nielsen har alle haft deres gang på forlaget. EWH blev i 1988 en del af Wise Music Group og samarbejder tæt på tværs af syv internationale kontorer. De

t nordiske islæt og traditionen er videreført til vor tid i en række markante nordiske profiler som Per Nørgård, Britta Bystrøm, Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen, Poul Ruders, Hans Abrahamsen, Sunleif Rasmussen, Bent Sørensen, Outi Tarkiainen, Eivind Buene og Maja S.K. Forlagsarbejdet bliver suppleret med et stærkt promotion-netværk på tværs af de syv internationale søsterkontorer og kontakter i musiklivet i hele Norden. I løbet af de seneste par år har EWH udvidet repertoiret til også at indeholde nogen af de mest succesfulde sangskrivere inden for dansk pop, som Sebastian, Lasse ’Pilfinger’ Kramhøft, Burhan G, Lars H.U.G, Fallulah, Lars Ankerstjerne og Shaka Loveless, samt filmkomponisterne Jacob Groth, Henrik Skram og Frans Bak. Pop-afdelingen arbejder aktivt med synkronisering, hvilket inkluderer at pitche og licensere EWHs katalog til film, tv og reklamer. Herudover arbejder afdelingen også ofte som musik supervisors på spillefilm og reklamer, både lokalt og internationalt. Edition Wilhelm Hansen forsøger på denne måde at bevare og udvikle sin position ikke bare som central forlagsvirksomhed men også som betydningsfuld musikdistributør i hele Norden.

Lil Lacy in Portrait with Sønderjyllands Symfoniorkester🌿

On 11 and 12 June 2026, Sønderjyllands Symfoniorkester and their chief conductor Christian Øland will present a full programme of orchestral works by Composer in Residence, Lil Lacy.

The programme features the World Premiere of 'ELEMENTS' as well as recent works including 'Di drømm dæ bringe vos sammel' and 'Fluidity of Matter and Life' (Flute Concerto) with Thomas Jensen as soloist. The works have emerged from an ongoing creative dialogue between the composer and musicians over the course of her residency. She writes:

"Working closely with an orchestra over several years is a dream come true and allows for a level of artistic depth that cannot emerge from single commissions. I am very proud that this portrait concert brings together different facets of my musical language and reflects what can unfold over time with ongoing dialogues, shared artistic experiences and growing trust and sensitivity between composer and orchestra. I am deeply grateful to the Danish Philharmonic Orchestra and its musicians for this collaboration."

Lil Lacy is the Composer in Residence of Sønderjyllands Symfoniorkester until 2027.

Later today, Oslo Sinfonietta will give the world premiere of 'A London Symphony' by Asbjørn Schaathun at the Ultima Oslo Contemporary Music Festival 🤩

Written for the ensemble's 40th anniversary celebrations at Henie Onstad Kunstsenter, Schaathun's brand-new work is a personal tribute to the place of his student days: "the city of London - gigantic, mysterious and historical – and in my memory still unapproachable."

Three of Britta Byström's musical walks are performed these days 🎶

arte frizzante in Switzerland are performing her 'A Walk by Heart' and 'A Walk to Tchaikovsky' in four concerts while Göttinger Symphonieorchester in Germany performs her 'A Walk to Beethoven 🤩

Byström has composed around 20 pieces with some variation of ‘walk’ since 2015 – from small pieces for duo instruments to large scale orchestral works. Mussorgsky famously used the promenade between the paintings as a recurring theme. The theme might stay the same but the music and organisation changes. “It's a brilliant musical idea: letting the music move instead of stopping!” Britta Byström states: “It amazes me that it hasn't become a more popular form in music history.”

Søren Nils Eichberg's Concerto Grosse 'Endorphin' from 2011 is on the programme at Tonhalle Düsseldorf May 31 🎶🤩

Søren Nils Eichberg explains the work in his programme note:

- The Concerto Grosso is a musical form which was very common in the Baroque period, but then widely vanished. With Endorphin I aimed to explore what of this traditional form is still of interest for us in a contemporary work and what we can save from this temporarily forgotten tradition. [..]

- Endorphines are what we colloquially refer to as “happiness hormones”. Endorphine is an endogenous opioid that drives our feelings of excitement, pain and love. Thus our body rewards ourselves in certain situations – or stimulates us – with chemical compounds, which make us feel happiness. However, these are compounds which are similar to very dangerous drugs, which can often lure people on to destruction. It was this ambiguity between euphoria and constant threat that I found suitable for the mood to which the music developed during the process of composing.
