Dansk musik – og musik på dansk
Kender du noget dansk musik? Hvad skal man høre? Er det overhovedet muligt at synge på dansk? Og kan man lære dansk ved at synge?
Vores egen underviser og professionelle sanger Sara Tødten har udvalgt sine favoritter og fortæller om den danske sangskat, dansk populærmusik gennem tiden og dansk musik i 2020’erne.
Vi taler om nogle af teksterne og sidst, men ikke mindst, prøver vi også selv kræfter med at synge lidt musik på dansk!

Det foregår:
Tirsdag d. 5. august 2025 kl. 13.30-15.30
Lokale 131, Borgergade 12





Danish music and music in Danish - Talk and singing

Do you know any Danish music? What should you be listening to? Is it even possible to sing in Danish? Can you learn Danish from singing? Our own teacher and professional singer Sara Tødten has selected her favourites and talks about the Danish song tradition, Danish popular music through time and Danish music in the 2020s.

We talk about some of the lyrics and last but not least, we try our hand at singing some songs in Danish!

It takes place:
Tuesday 5 August from 13.30-15.30
Room 131, Borgergade 12

Sara recommends:
Who is your favourite Danish musician?
"Annika Aakjær is someone I have followed ever since she was the supporting act for Thomas Buttenschøn in 2008. They both have a lot of playfulness, honesty, directness and quirkiness in their lyrics. I appreciate the same kind of honesty in Marie Key and Anne Linnet, whose music I also enjoy listening to. I like Troels Gustavsen’s warm voice, and I am fond of listening to Cæcilie Nordby’s jazzy numbers – their strength and intensity make a huge impression on me, especially performed live. There are many talented artists.
I sometimes use Danish song lyrics in my Danish classes."

Do you have a favourite place in Copenhagen?

"When the sun is shining, my favourite thing to do is to pack a lunch box and go for a bike ride with no destination. I live by the water and I love biking along the route named Havneringen, where I pass by modern architecture, historical attractions and nature such as by Nokken.
Other favourites include Sydhavnstippen near Valbyparken and the bike path along the water on Kalvebod Fælled and Vestamager that takes you to Sydvestpynten and Kongelunden. I let my thoughts go, listen to the birds, sing loudly and jump in the water. I wonder if you know the 27 kilometer long hiking route called the Amarmino?"
