Mikkel Andersen (Guitar, Arranger)

Born: 1972 - near Copenhagen Denmark

The Danish guitarist, Mikkel Andersen, began playing the guitar when he was 9 years old. Upon finishing high school, he continued and finished his musical studies at various Danish music conservatories and the Royal College of Music in London.

Since then, Mikkel Andersen has travelled the world as a chamber musician and classical soloist, and has given concerts in Sweden, Norway, Germany, Austria, Italy, Poland, the Baltic countries, Russia, the UK, Canada, the USAs and the Faroe Islands. Beyond his role as a soloist, he also plays in various ensembles. He has contributed to a series of recordings in Denmark and abroad.

In addition, Mikkel Andersen teaches privately and is affiliated with the Køge Music School and the Danish music conservatory preparatory program, ”MGK.”

”Here Mikkel Andersen has gone solo with a handful of pieces from the major guitar composers of the 19th century. It is a well-composed mix; at each turn, you long to hear more, and another one after that.” - Helle Kristensen, Danmarks Radio P2
