Winners of five Danish Music Awards, discover the innovative brilliance of this Nordic world music sensation. The trio’s sound is based on virtuosic and incendiary musical ability across a range of instruments that includes violin, accordion, piano and cittern. The trio was recently named “2023 Artist of the Year” by the Danish national classical radio channel P2 — the first non-classical group to earn that honor. Endlessly exploring new challenges for themselves and for audiences, Dreamers’ Circus mine their backgrounds in traditional and roots music to present a genre-bending amalgam of folk sensibility, jazz improvisation and classical complexity distilled through an openness to popular music influences.

The trio, two Danes and a Swede, are Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen, pianist and accordionist Nikolaj Busk, and Nordic-cittern player Ale Carr (from Sweden).
