The Danish composer Niels la Cour (b. 1944) has the whole sacred music tradition as a natural starting point in his striving for beauty, timelessness and suprapersonal sublimity. The expressive balance, internal consistency and calm, organically breathing melodic basis of the music make it perfect for the church interior, as clearly shown by this recording from the Trinitatis Church in Copenhagen with the organ soloist Bine Bryndorf and the chamber choir Trinitatis Kantori.
