Musikforeningen information


Odd Fellows Mansion in Copenhagen, Musikforeningen's venue for concerts

Musikforeningen (The Music Society) in Copenhagen was Denmark's most important concert venue in the 19th century. It operated from 1838 to 1931 but it was especially under the leadership of Niels Gade (1850–90) that it became a meeting place for the city's music life with its own symphony orchestra and choir. Carl Nielsen was director from 1915–27.[1] Other leaders included Franz Gläser, Emil Hartmann and Franz Neruda.
