Højskolesangbogen
Højskolesangbogen of the Danish adult Folk High Schools is a songbook established by Heinrich von Nutzhorn in 1894 and substantially revised into a 1922 standard edition.[1]
Twelve of the songs were selected as part of the Danish Culture Canon and freshly recorded under the auspices of Det Kongelige Bibliotek in 2006 by soprano Signe Asmussen, tenor David Danholt[2] and pianist Ulrich Stærk, released as Fra Højskolesangbogen on the government-funded Dacapo Records label.[3]

The author starts with an example drawn from the song book used in Danish folk high schools, where the texts of the songs illustrate the great esteem in which cultural traditions are held. There are however considerable inherent ambiguities."
