The link below will take you to all my posts on Carl Nielsen, the Danish composer.
My experience of Nielsen and enthusiasm for his works — such is the case with me — comes from his vocal works.
I realize that I have attained considerable knowledge about him over the years and that my posts about him represent an impressive assemblage.

It consists of a prayer in the Huron (aka Wyandot) language spoken by Joseph Chihwatenhwa, a Wyandot (Huron) convert in La Conception, the name of a mission established in 1634 by the Jesuits in the village of Ossossane, which was located on the shores of Lake Huron in Ontario, Canada.
