Danish composer Martin Stauning writes intense and evocative music. His works always have an immediate and sensuous quality demonstrating Stauning’s distinctive, personal lyrical expression. His Harp Concerto was composed during two Corona shutdowns in 2020 and 2021. According to Stauning, there are several elements in the Harp Concerto that are inspired by the special situation during the shutdowns: 'Originally, I saw the soloist as a kind of puppet master. Every time he pulls the strings, there is a reaction in the orchestra, so in a way, it becomes his puppet. Gradually, it became apparent to me that the strings were acting like "bars" under which the harpist was trapped and tries to escape from.'
