About

Music for our future heritage!

For over thirty years, Concerto Copenhagen has embarked on a journey of discovery, exploring music from the Baroque, Viennese Classical, and Early Romantic periods with historical awareness and commitment.

Today, Concerto Copenhagen stands as a leading light in its field, both nationally and internationally.

Under the musical direction of Lars Ulrik Mortensen, Concerto Copenhagen combines a joyous and inquisitive approach to historical material with artistic originality, resulting in a continual evolution of its performance style and delivery. Through this approach, the music is brought to life in a process of dynamic renewal, inspiring and delighting contemporary audiences.

Since its inaugural concerts in 1991, Concerto Copenhagen has released multiple internationally acclaimed albums and participated in hundreds of concerts, opera productions, soundtrack and video productions, and multidisciplinary performances around the world.

With a repertoire that combines more familiar European music with lesser-known works of Scandinavian origin and new music, the orchestra celebrated its 30-year anniversary in 2021 and was subsequently nominated for Danish Radio P2 Artist of the Year 2022.
