From Denmark to Sweden

Ryan Bancroft conducts the Malmö Symphony Orchestra in a performance of Nielsen's Symphony No 4, 'The Inextinguishable'.

Ian Skelly introduces recordings from around Europe.

Continuing his week of music from Denmark and Sweden, Ian crosses the Øresund Bridge from Copenhagen to Malmö, with a Danish composer and Swedish orchestra - Nielsen's Fourth Symphony, 'The Inextinguishable', his celebration of the will to live, played by the Malmö Symphony Orchestra and Ryan Bancroft. Just a little way up the coast, the Helsingborg Guitar Festival takes place, and Ian has recordings from the 2023 edition, featuring Swedish guitar duo Mats Bergström and Göran Söllscher. And there are further recordings from the Mozart Week which took place this January in Salzburg.
