Duo Saxifraga


Duo Saxifraga is saxophonist Sarah Vibe-Petersen and pianist Cathrine Penderup. They both hold a soloist exam and started their ensemble in 2006. Their repertoire contains both original and transcribed works; the originals being mainly from the 20th century due to the newer origin of the saxophone. Of transcriptions, they have especially chosen works from the Romantic and Baroque periods. 

They have performed both as soloists and in other ensembles, and with the Duo Saxifraga they will try to open up for the universe of beautiful sounds, which a saxophone and piano together can create. They wish to give the audience an experience beyond the extraordinary.



 

Vestergaard/Penderup


This duo originated from The Royal Danish Academy of Music, where the soprano Iben Vestergaard www.ibenvestergaard.dk and Cathrine Penderup studied together. It did not take long before they developed a common musical tonal language. Since then they have continued working together, giving numerous concerts both in Denmark and abroad.


They have a broad repertoire containing also less known works.


In 2007 they recorded a cd with songs and romances by Emma Hartmann, 1807-51, the wife of the Danish composer J. P. E. Hartmann.


Next project, a double cd with Nordic and German songs by the son Emil Hartmann (1836-98), was published in 2010.





Van der Pals/Penderup


This ensemble with cellist Tobias van der Pals www.vanderpals.comstarted in 2008, when Copenhagen Concert Society had their opening concert. Since then they have played several concerts together, including Copenhagen Summer Festival and for the remake of Blaagards church into a culture center.
