Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen is in every sense a barrier-breaking ensemble. With great enthusiasm, everybody within or close to the ensemble becomes a mouthpiece for the avant-garde through innovative projects that overcome aesthetic limitations and physical boundaries. Athelas has long been established as a leading Danish Chamber ensemble and the nation's foremost new music ensemble. Concert series, participation in operas and festivals, international tours, recordings of new Danish and international music and imaginative concert programming has made Athelas a remarkable institution. Time after time, a unanimous press has emphasised the high artistic standard of the ensemble. Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen has performed around 600 different music works including a large number of first performances. Athelas' determined pursuit of quality has attracted many important soloists and conductors, such as Steve Reich, Per Nørgård, Heiner Goebbels, Poul Ruders, Arvo Pärt, David Lang, Christian Lindberg, Reinbert de Leeuw, Thomas Adès, Ilan Volkov, Paul Hillier, George Benjamin, Philippe Leroux and Pierre-André Valade.
