Thorvaldsen and The Music – Rome – Copenhagen ©
An incredible wealth of quotes have survived about the famous Danish sculptor Bertel Thovaldsen’s (1770-1844) relation to music. Contemporary memoirs. letters, travel accounts and diary entries by Friederike Brun, Rudolph Bay and H. C. Andersen among others convey an excellent impression of Thorvaldsen both as an accomplished and enthusiastic amateur mainly on the guitar, but also on the flute and violin which he had been taught in Copenhagen up to 1797, and as the receptive listener at the musical soiries he attended in Rome’s affluent and cultivated circles during the many years he spent in ltaly (1797-1838) and later in similar company in Copenhagen.
