I got this tip sent to me: A new album released today from one of the most highly regarded jazz pianist in Denmark, Carsten Dahl.

How do you like it?

I really like the last track, The Mysterious Corona.

Musical Interlude: One of the fun things about listening to Lumbye is that so much of his work was meant to be played at open-air concerts and dances; he did a lot of waltz, polka, and other dance tunes. We need more open-air concerts!

"Torchlight Dance," composed by Hans Christian Lumbye, performed by the Tivoli Symphony Orchestra, which he conducted for many years.
