”Povl Balslev – is that the music octopus from Svendborg?”

You may know me as an organist, lecturer, musician, choir director or author. As the author of songs and hymns. As a cultural entrepreneur and event organizer. As the jester in the tower.

A human being contains so much that is unimaginable. And – in Carl Nielsen’s words – it has to come out!

It all stems from the same, tickling, creative restlessness: CREATE! – PLAY! – SHARE IT! SAY YES! Start softly, get everyone involved. Save the hardest part for last. Get as much out as possible to as many people as possible, in all possible places. Explore all the keys. Always with respect for tradition and a touch of recognition.

Exchange. Community. Communication. Quiet meditation. It is the music of my life.

I look forward to sharing it all with you.
