	Vagn Holmboe: Chamber Concertos
		Holmboe's last chamber concerto, the Chamber Concerto No. 13 for oboe and viola (1955-56), is a forward looking piece in which the oboe and viola weave delicate, eerie melodies against a small orchestra consisting of woodwinds, four French horns and strings.
		Holmboe solves the "problem" of a two instrument concerto by having the oboe and viola play together through most of the work.
		It is no surprise to discover that Holmboe's very next opus, Epitaph (available in a splendid recording by Owain Arwel Hughes and the Aalborg Symphony Orchestra on BIS CD 852), is the first of his four "Symphonic Metamorphoses," the works that epitomize his late style.

		Vagn Gylding Holmboe, (born December 20 1909 in Horsens, Jutland; died September 1 1996 in Ramløse) was a Danish composer and teacher who wrote largely in a neo-classical style.
		Holmboe began studying music at the age of 17 at the Royal Danish Academy of Music in Copenhagen on the recommendation of Carl Nielsen, studying under Knud Jeppesen (Theory) and Finn Høffding (Composition).
		Holmboe composed about two hundred works, including thirteen symphonies, three chamber symphonies, four symphonies for strings, twenty string quartets, numerous concertos, one opera, and the late series of preludes for chamber orchestra, as well as much choral and other music, in addition to some early works that never received opus numbers.

	Classical Net Review - Holmboe - Symphonies #11-13
		Born in 1909, Holmboe entered the Royal Danish Music Conservatory at the age of 17, on the recommendation of Carl Nielsen.
		Holmboe's music is firmly modern, but you don't lose your way in it - a considerable achievement, since his larger structures tend to idiosyncracy.
		Holmboe's intricate counterpoint remains clear, and the sound is full and warm.

		The Preludes for Sinfonietta of Vagn Holmboe -
		Vagn Holmboe, the leading Danish 20th century symphonist after Nielsen (Nielsen died in 1931; his 6th and last symphony was completed in 1925) was born in 1909 and died just five years ago, having given the world over 400 works covering the breadth of involvement.
		Holmboe's craft is one of a musical sculptor, or better still a weaver of themes, lyrical flowing lines, into symphonic tapestries, strong and gently, transparently colourful.

		Vagn Holmboe is a major symphonic composer, and these two symphonies are among his finest creations.
		The four movements adopt clearly balanced and focused identities that have much in common with the traditional four movement layout of the symphony, with a particularly dramatic driving scherzo which is placed second in the sequence.
		Holmboe is an assured orchestrator, but the weight of symphonic line and argument is always his priority, and he never uses the colouring of instrumental combinations to merely engage the ear on a surface level.

	Classical Net Review - Experiencing Music: A Composer's Notes by Vagn Holmboe
		Holmboe addresses his book, not to the specialist, but to the general intelligent reader, although even a specialist could learn something from it.
		This life remains inexplicable, miraculous, even – to quote Holmboe – "magical." Holmboe extends his model to include the culture at large, which reveals his belief in music as a social force, with interactions and responsibilities among artists and civilians.
		Holmboe wants to persuade you by what he says, rather than by who he is, even though the essay contains of necessity the first-hand experience of a superb musician.

		He was of course a private pupil of Holmboe, and the lessons were paid for by his parents: DKK 100 per lesson, which at that time seemed a lot of money to the young composer.
		Holmboe insisted on a trial period to see if his pupil could profit from the lessons.
		Holmboe died in 1996 at the age of 87, while Høffding died in 1998 at the age of 99.

		The Danish composer, Vagn Holmboe, was born at Horsens in East Jutland on 20 December 1909.
		All of the Holmboe symphonies are tonal and approachable.
		A ruminative interlude, low in the orchestra, is the home for a tender melody which, as it unwinds, is blown away by gusts and shudders of quicker music which ultimately fades with the same unfinished sense of unresolved conflict found at the end of the eleventh.

		As was the case with Béla Bartók (one of Holmboe's most important sources of inspiration), folkloristic studies have here contributed significantly to the compositional process.
		Holmboe is the most influential Danish composers of the generation after Carl Nielsen and his large output includes twelve symphonies, chamber concertos, and a long series of extremely fine string quartets.

		Holmboe certainly compares to Nielsen in that he too had a strong sense of nationalism, a keen ear for the simple folk melodies of his land, and a brain filled with modern ideas.
		Holmboe begins the development immediately, with stirrings and transformations and recombinations of the components, always in dark motion, until the vision of some antique monument seems to stand before us.
		Holmboe's "Symphonic Metamorphoses" are works of symphonic length and proportions, but are structured differently than his actual symponies.

	Tower Records - Holmboe: String Quartets Vol 4 / Kontra Quartet
		Vagn Holmboe is certainly one of the greatest composers of string quartets in the 20th century, and this disc, part of an integral recording of Holmboe's 20 quartets, certainly ranks as a significant cycle after Bart¢k, Shostakovich and Simpson.
		Holmboe was a tonal though heavily chromatic composer whose body of work is imbued with the composer's love of central European folk music.
		This quartet is remarkable not simply for its intensity but for Holmboe's unfolding and spinning out of ideas and his tendency to write quiet passages when the music is moving fast.

		The final trio of symphonies (11 [1980], 12 [1988], and 13 [1994]) represents the perfected synthesis of all the characteristic Holmboe traits: Continuous transformation of simple motifs; dense but luminous polyphony; a constant but deeply sublimated presence of Danish folksong; a tendency to qualified optimism in the closing bars.
		The ethereal sounds ("Calmo" once again) remind us of another Holmboe trait that acquires geat importance in the last three symphonies: A Cosmic feeling, partly religious, partly esthetic, at once lyrical and impersonal.
