For the Danish orchestra Ensemble MidtVest, the goal is clearly set: taking classical music to another level updating its performances to modern times, which always get more innovative, and therefore turning classical music into a music influenced as much from the past as it is from the future.

Born in 2002 and formed by 10 artists, the variety of instruments used by the orchestra is as wide as their repertoire. Musically we are talking about a string quartet (two violins, a viola and a cello), a wind quintet (a flute, an oboe, a clarinet, a horn and a bassoon) and a piano. Always following this goal of promoting a heterogeneous musical repertoire, the orchestra often plays with well-known soloists to perform around Denmark’s best stages and occasionally worldwide.

Un-Pop Classik will unite them to Teitur, the contemporary folk singer, to prove the public that traditions and pop culture can get on well to join the crowds.
