The organist Eva Feldbæk has taken on one of the Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen’s earlier works and challenged him to write new ones. The result is a record of organ works that span a period of over 25 years: from Mirror III from 1974 to Archaic Procession and Cabinet of Mirrors from this year. They mark a notable process of development in the work of a composer who has always set himself up in opposition to new dominant trends and gospels. In 1999 Eva Feldbæk persuaded him to revive his old interest in composing for the organ. This led to a whole series of compositions where Holmgreen expresses himself in new, surprising ways.
