Helene Gjerris, mezzo-soprano
Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen

The Will-o'-the-Wisps in Town is an extraordinary fairy tale cantata created by the Danish composer Per Nørgård (b. 1932) and his close friend, author Suzanne Brøgger, on the basis of a little known fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. This world premiere recording of the chamber version focuses on the charismatic "Marsh With", sung by mezzo-soprano Helene Gjerris who also premiered the work in Birmingham, UK, at the international celebration of the 200th anniversary of Hans Christian Andersen's birth.

The CD is accompanied by a half-hour documentary following Nørgård, Brøgger, Gjerris and the Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen's work with The Will-o'-the-Wisps produced by TV GLAD, a Danish national TV station for and featuring people with intellectual disability / functional impairment.
