Artistic Director
Lars Ulrik Mortensen
Lars Ulrik Mortensens began conducting around 20 years ago with "modern" orchestras in Sweden and Denmark, where his activities at Det Kgl. Teater attracted a lot of attention. Since 2003, however, he has concentrated on working with specialized ensembles with historical instruments. Lars Ulrik Mortensen (b. 1955) studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Music and then with Trevor Pinnock in London. From 1988 to 1990 Lars Ulrik Mortensen was harpsichordist in London Baroque and until 1993 in Collegium Musicum 90 under the direction of Simon Standage.
