“I went to a concert with the Ensemble Lydenskab in Aarhus, Denmark, where the programme featured Henrik Budde’s work “Terribly Cold and Nearly Dark”. To this date it is still one of the strongest music experiences I have had. The creation of a strong intencity and fervency, and the addition of a strong moment of unexpected surprise, created by Henrik Budde in his work, makes a fantastic impression.
I was overwhelmed and totally blown away!”
Jesper Busk Sørensen, Trombone, The Berlin Philharmonic
