about
Dan Laurin (1960 in Jönköping, Sweden) is an award-winning Swedish recorder player. He studied at the Conservatories of Odense and Copenhagen from 1976-82. Since 1980 he has been on the concert stage, performing and recording with the Drottningholm Baroque Ensemble, Bach Collegium Japan, Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, the Polish ensemble 'Arte dei Suonatori' ,and many other ensembles, with regular tours to Japan, the United States, Israel, Australia and across Europe. His work as a performing musician is complemented by an active teaching schedule including professorships at The Carl Nielsen Academy of Music, Odense; The Conservatory of Music in Gothenburg, Sweden and the Royal Conservatory of Music in Copenhagen. More recently Dan Laurin was appointed professor of the recorder and teaches at Stockholm's Royal College of Music. He researches and lectures on many areas of interpretation, music aesthetics, recorder acoustics, sound techniques, and performance issues. Dan Laurin can plausibly be said to be one of the greatest players of the recorder active today, alongside others such as Michala Petri.[citation needed] He has explored and widened the sonic possibilities of the recorder and has an unequalled technical facility.[citation needed] His playing explores a wide palette of tonal colours and a striking control of dynamics; the expressiveness of his playing is marked by a freedom in moving from the mutest pianissimo to a clear forte within hairbreadth spaces of time.
