Bolette Roed founder and member of various ensembles such as Iris, Paradox, Lune Rousse, Alpha and Gáman, duo partner of James Crabb (accordion) and Allan Rasmussen (harpsichord), DR Artist of the Year 2005 and orchestral soloist with among others CoCo and the Danish National Symphony Orchestra, has since her debut in 2004 made her mark among Denmark’s leading instrumentalists on both the Danish and the international music scene. For Bolette Roed the recorder is an instrument that can be used in many different contexts, including those outside its various historical epochs in the Middle Ages, Renaissance and Baroque. She has extended the recorder’s repertoire and worked with a great variety of instrumental combinations and potential repertoires, and has commissioned and premiered works by composers in and outside Denmark. Her collaboration with many different instrumentalists has further inspired improvisations on folk music and world music. Electro-acoustic improvisations are also part of her repertoire.
