PETER HEISE: THE SONG EDITION
Peter Heise didn’t give much attention to his songs. He didn’t perform them, give them opus numbers or attempt to have them published outside Denmark. The songs lived their own lives, spreading amongst the Danish public because of the strength of their beauty and their artistic quality. With time they have been acknowledged as the best of their kind written by a Danish composer. This edition presents nearly every song, almost 300 songs in all, for the first time.
