Carl Nielsen was the seventh of twelve children of a poor house painter. At the age of eight he received violin lessons from his father and a local teacher. To get a job in the military orchestra, he learned the trumpet and then got it too 14 Worked as a military musician in Odense for years. He later described these childhood and youth years in his autobiographical book Min fynske barndom (A childhood on Funen) (1927). 1883 he was able to study in Copenhagen. He majored in violin at the Royal Conservatory, other subjects among others with Niels Wilhelm Gade and Johann Peter Emilius Hartmann. 1888 he had his first success as a composer with the Small Suite for Strings. 1889 he received a position as a violinist at the Royal Theater in Copenhagen and was also able to do so through a scholarship 1890 to continue his studies in Germany. 1891 Nielsen met the sculptor Anne Marie Brodersen in Paris, whom he married in the same year. The marriage lasted until his death, but also went through some crises. 1892 his first symphony was written, 1898 the hymn Amoris, a declaration of love to his wife. 1902 Nielsen made his debut as a conductor at the world premiere of his opera Saul und David. In the same year his second symphony The Four Temperaments was premiered. 1903 he traveled to Greece with his wife, where the Helios overture was written. 1905 Nielsen quit his job as a violinist, but worked as a conductor until 1914 at the Royal Theater and then at the Copenhagen Music Association. 1906 had the cheerful opera masquerade, based on a comedy by Ludvig Holberg, Premiere. Sie wurde später zur ?heimlichen Nationaloper? Dänemarks. Doch erst die 1912 First performed third symphony Sinfonia espansiva and his violin concerto from the same year earned him greater recognition, which now also reached abroad. During the years of the First World War, in which he wrote the fourth symphony The Inextinguishable, Nielsen experienced professional and personal crises. He overcame it only with the fifth symphony and the cantata Spring on Fyn, a work very popular in Denmark, which both 1922 were premiered. In the same year he gave with fellow composer Thorvald Aagaard, Thomas Laub and Oluf Ring published the songbook Folkehøjskolens Melodibog. And also 1922 Nielsen wrote a wind quintet for five musician friends, even planned, to compose a solo concert for everyone. Only two works were created, the flute concert (1926) and the clarinet concerto (1928). 1925, to his 60. birthday, Carl Nielsen was celebrated like a folk hero. He became the commander 2.Class of the Order of Dannebrog appointed. Nielsen's appearances as a conductor abroad increased.
