Mathias Madsen Munch (b. 1986)
Mathias learned his craft making music for children, where engagement is the heart of everything, and brings the same approach to every audience – in cinemas, schools, concert halls, at festivals, on community and international stages.
"The performance is built around the audience's active participation – the children make a number of important choices along the way, which is in itself an example of promoting Danish values."
Thomas Winkler, then Danish Ambassador to Russia, 2018 (translated)
"We can only support his approach to co-creating interactive works that travel between orchestras in dialogue with their audience."
Maja Joss-Børch, Sønderjylland Symphony Orchestra, 2024 (translated)
"He does his utmost to make sure that everyone involved – including the individual pupil taking part in a workshop – feels good and gives their best."
Ida Wettendorff, children's culture consultant, Helsingør Municipality, 2020 (translated) · a partnership since 2012
