Disc No: 8.224131 The spirit of folk culture plays an important role in the music of Vagn Holmboe. As was the case with Béla Bartók, folkloristic atudies have here contributed significantly to the compositional process. Holmboe is the most influential Danish compser of the generation after Carl Nielsen and his large output includes twelfe symphonies, chamber concertos, and a longs series of extremely fine string quartets.
