The first known version of the tune for the Danish royal and national anthem "Kong Christian stod ved højen Mast" (King Christian stood by the lofty mast) is found in the notebook of the brothers Bast from around 1770-1780. The brothers where both fiddlers, entertaining at dinners, dances and parties, while studying theology in Copenhagen. From the notebook, the melody found its way to among others the composer Friedrich Kuhlau, who used it his play "Elverhøj" (Elves' Hill) from 1828. The success of the play elevated the melody to it's status as royal and national anthem.
In this video, Concerto Copenhagen, with Peter Spissky in front, aim to present the tune in its original form – freshly taken from two fiddlers' collection of tunes.
