Erik Norby
**Erik Norby** was a Danish composer known for his vivid, imaginative works that blended mystical themes with rich orchestral textures. Born in 1936, he became a prominent figure in Scandinavian classical music, crafting pieces like *The Rainbow Snake* (inspired by Indigenous Australian folklore) and *Corps Celeste* (a celestial-themed organ concerto). His compositions often featured collaborations with his wife, organist Annette Norby, and were performed by ensembles like the Danish National Symphony Orchestra. Norby’s music leaned into storytelling, drawing from nature, mythology, and cosmic imagery until his passing in 2007. His legacy lives on through dynamic works like *Titanic* and the hauntingly beautiful *Sodergran Lieder*.
