Abstract
Vagn Homboe, born in Horsens on the Jutland peninsula in 1909, is the doyen of Danish composers. Although he celebrates his eightieth birthday on 20 December, he remains formidably productive: his new Twelfth Symphony was premièred by the BBC Welsh Symphony Orchestra in Cardiff on 21 October. A prolific composer in many genres, his reputation rests securely on the twin pillars of his symphonies and his even more numerous string quartets.
