Tomorrow night Scandinavian Cello School celebrate

Tomorrow night Scandinavian Cello School celebrates life, love and all we stand for at Tivolis Koncertsal. 🇩🇰❤️🌈🎻🎶

A small idea in 2016 has grown, helping hundreds of musicians and taking us with performances all over the world from prisons, barns, shipping containers, even the ball of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra - and now to Tivoli 😍

Today marks 100 days since the start of the war - we are proud to have helped our Ukrainian musician colleagues since day 1 - and some of those will join on stage. 🇺🇦

Tomorrow should be a really sunny day at Tivoli, so please join us and spend a Danish summer day in the gardens - culminating in a special evening at the concert hall, where entry is free to our show.

I’m proud to share the stage with some of the most amazing people I know:

Scandinavian Cello School blev sidste år en viral historie verden over med et portræt i The New York Times, der kunne fortælle om den unikke musikskole: Et moderne kollektiv i Stevns, hvor det bæredygtige, fællesskabet, og en højprofileret musikundervisning går hånd i hånd. Den internationale skole for unge musikere har de sidste år været med til at sprede kendskabet til klassisk musik med koncerter i fængsler, på hospitaler og i containere – og altså nu også i Tivolis Koncertsal. Som en del af Tivolis SommerKlassisk-program vil Scandinavian Cello School på festlig vis, præsentere deres mangfoldige kulturelle input og indtage den historiske scene sammen deres tætte samarbejder og musikere The NOVO Quartet, Trio Gemini, Kira Martini, Duo LuLo og popsanger Sys Bjerre – præsenteret af medie- og kulturpersonlighed, Peter Kær.

Last year, the Scandinavian Cello School became a viral story worldwide with a portrait in The New York Times: A modern collective in Stevns, where the sustainable, the community, and a high-quality music education go hand in hand. The international school for young musicians has in recent years helped to spread the knowledge of classical music with concerts in prisons, hospitals and in containers - and now also in Tivoli's Concert Hall. As part of Tivoli's Summer Classic program, the Scandinavian Cello School will festively present their diverse cultural input and perform on the historic stage together with their close collaboraters and musicians including NOVO Quartet, Trio Gemini, Kira Martini, Duo LuLo and pop singer Sys Bjerre - presented by media and cultural personality, Peter Kær.

Studio projects with Sys Bjerre 💿 meals with the extended international SCS family 🇺🇦 presentation to local associations 🎻 lots of fantastic meetings 👨‍💻 plus attending a thinktank event hosted by the Danish minister of culture and a fascinating morning for Samuelsen culture-political network with Danish legends Jim Lyngvild, Ghita Nørby and Christian Have…

Upcoming weeks bring with it trips to Bordeaux for the 2 year corona delayed Festival International de Musique de Chambre en Charente, to Jutland with Sys Bjerre and the Ukrainian musicians we support, and the premiere of my corona delayed FORTISSIMO project fusing fine dining with fine music at the cult @opusonewinery vineyard in Napa Valley, California….. Let the travels commence 🛫🍷🎶

On Saturday we had the honour to perform alongside Danish popstar Sys Bjerre, who lives right beside Scandinavian Cello School with her family - and also opened up her home to host some of the Ukrainian musicians we evacuated to Denmark.

Three performances in one day - the first with Åbne Atelierdøre Stevns - Faxe raising 59.065 dkk for Danske Flygtningehjælps work for Ukraine, the second outside the Russian Embassy at a protest march where @amnestydanmark handed over 30.000 signatures from Danes that demand Russian agression in Ukraine stops immediately, and finally as guests of Sys Bjerre at her concert in Viby Sjælland.

We are preparing further performances including at Tivoli main concert hall on the 4th June and finding funding for the Ukrainian musicians based in Stevns - national TV2 came to report on it.

Please consider supporting them: link in bio

The arrival of Spring brings with it amazing meetings for Stevns Klint Visitor Center, trips to several Danish art galleries, first fishing of the season, Elise delving into the world of Dinosaurs (just in time to get prepared for the exhibition at Stevns Klint 🙈).

And… preparing for upcoming performances on Saturday 23.04.22 with our Ukrainian guests and Danish popstar Sys Bjerre:

12:00 - Danske Flygtningehjælp /
Åbne Atelierdøre Stevns – Faxe

15:30 - @amnestydanmark / in front of the Russian Embassy of Copenhagen (link on our FB)

20:00 - @kulturcosmos / Viby Sjælland

You can continue to donate to the fundraiser for the Ukrainian musicians we support (link in bio). The girls do not receive ANY support from the state or local government, and are 100% reliant the kindness of donations and our support ❤️🇩🇰🇺🇦

“Music was my life. I was happy. Now I feel that I don’t have my life any more”.

A short piece by @bbcnews about the Ukrainian musicians supported through Scandinavian Cello School, with a longer story on BBC Radio 4 and looped on BBC World News.

Rehearsals start next week for upcoming concerts - you can donate to help the musicians through our fundraiser (link in bio).

This week, @natalia_ivanovska - one of the cellists we evacuated from Ukraine to Denmark accepted an invitation to join @orchestredeparis until further notice and flew from Scandinavian Cello School to Paris to start her next chapter.

Last night she had her first concert in the great Paris Philharmonic Hall with symphonies of Beethoven and Shostakovich under Jaap Van Zweden.

We couldn’t be more proud of this brave and amazing young lady ❤️and THANK YOU @orchestredeparis for your initiative 🇫🇷

And with her departure comes space to host one more musician, a young 19 year old pianist from Kharkiv - already on her way with a new passport and visa issued - expected to arrive in Denmark on Tuesday 🎹🇺🇦🇩🇰

Another whirlwind 10 days pass with an unbelievably packed course on cultural entrepreneurship in Cremona for the beautiful newly opened @stauffercenter 🌞

Curated and led by myself and Cindy Hwang @inpulsecreatives - we featured wonderful guest speakers (@kian.soltani_cellist , Anthony Sargent, @peter_lodahl , Mette Højen, @ggdiiorio , @bjarkemogensen_acc , @robertavverna , Zoe Yu, Kilmulis Design, @gilman_alexander ).

Celebrating my 34th birthday in Italy before rushing home to welcome @novoquartet and friends and rehearsals for their new festival @across_chambermusic .
Lovely that the Ukrainian musicians had the chance to watch rehearsals with these super young musicians and inspiring lessons at SCS with Asbjørn and Frederik from @danishquartet .

The wave of local support for the Ukrainian musicians staying at SCS continues with a partnership with Klinten Hotel in Rødvig @konferencehotelklinten now driving out twice a week with more supplies and food - amazing generosity. The girls are settling in well and Elise is over the moon to have gained 7 big sisters!! ❤️

Catch up: For those in Denmark, I’ll be the guest speaker on DRP1 (Danish National Radio) at their culture program which goes out live at 15:15 today, whilst @berlingske have a more in depth interview and feature on Saturday - nicely combined with the visit of @bbcnews to Scandinavian Cello School…..

A change for life: I am honoured and humbled to announce that from 1st April I will be Director of Culture (Kulturchef) at the @unesco World Heritage Site of Stevns Klint - Stevns Klint Besøgscenter ApS.

Stevns Klint Visitor Center is a cultural landmark for science-based communication about the Depth of Time, the Development of Life, Cliff & Nature. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is driven by the vision that the common culture and natural heritage is accessible for all.

66 million years ago Earth collided with an asteroid with immense power. Stevns Klint is the best place in the world to see the traces from the catastrophe and is therefore an ideal spot to address current challenges: Climate is changing, biodiversity is threatened, and sustainability is crucial. Experiences that change people's knowledge and life is precisely the goal of the work at Stevns Klint Visitor Center. I want to make a significant difference by curating a world class cultural program, which is both relevant for locals but also bringing numerous guests from afar.

I am so proud to live at Stevns, and am over the moon to be able to have the chance to give back and curate a completely extraordinary program that both can convey the unique story of Stevns Klint and inspire all those who will attend our events.

THANK YOU to all those who have trusted me with driving the cultural vision - I can’t wait to get started, working alongside the team of World Heritage Stevns' talented employees, and together ensuring our visitors a completely unique experience.

For more details about the new position and further details about Stevns Klint Visitor Center, please see the press release (link in bio)
