Wundergrund is an annual event in Copenhagen, setting the scene for experimental music, in the open space between contemporary classical, electronic and popular music. Anything can happen during the festival's many wondrous interactions, between Danish and international new music, other musical genres and art environments. 

Wundergrund also creates platforms for creative dialogues/partnerships between experimenting music and other creative industries. In 2007 the festival collaborated with the fashion industry (Baum & Pferdgarten) and the gaming industry (Hitman/IO Interactive). Other extern partnerships in process are taking place with The Danish Architecture Center, The Danish Design Center and CPH:DOX.

 

Said about Wundergrund: 

”It's something else (better)  than what I expected. It is more modern and inspiring music - not just "stiff classical" or chaotic jazz. It's a totally different genre...” (Audience comment – cf. audience report pp. 18 / wundergrund.dk)

"Wundergrund has shown that it is possible to find new musical ways in the meeting between different musical cultures.” (Esben Tange/P2 Bolero price 2007)

”The quality initiative that I'm thinking about is called Wundergrund. A mobile music scene where musicians from the different old strongholds – classical, jazz and rythmic – joins each other crossing their own traditional borders. And they see how beautilful, different and joyfull the result is…” (Thomas Michelsen, 2007/Politiken)

”Wundergrund is an important path on that road where we meet up and make a common playground in spite of our creeds.” (Tanja Zapolski, Zoom/Jomi Massage)
