Damkapellet
Copenhagen Based Music Colective
Damkapellet is a music collective formed in 2016 to bring diversity to the Danish music scene by highlighting and performing music by artists who define themselves as women, non-binary or transgender. The collective debuted on 8 March the same year at KoncertKirken, Copenhagen, celebrating International Women’s Day.
As an ensemble, Damkapellet embraces large parts of art music, from newly composed music and improvisation to opera, Baroque, children’s performances, and performance art.
Josefine has been part of the collective since 2019.

2023 Album release
Damkapellet: Demiurge
Demiurge is the debut release by the musical collective Damkapellet and was released by Dacapo Records in February 2023.
The album consists of music by Lo Kristenson (SE), Randi Pontoppidan (DK), Kirstine Lindemann (DK) and Greta Eacott (GB/SE) and was recorded during the summer of 2020 in Koncertkirken, Copenhagen.
“Dansk-svenska Damkapellets första album är som en enda lång häxrit der kvinnorna, de icke-binära och transpersonernas plats i rummet är icke förhandlingsbar.”
“Lika kompromisslöst och coolt, öppet og sökande som resten av denna demoniska debut.”
“Det var en kraftpræstation af Damkapellet. Med sådan et kollektiv, kan man kun begræde, at det skulle tage så lang tid før verden tillod kvindelige, non-binære og transkønnede komponister at få anerkendelse. Vi håber bare ikke, at vi skal vente 6 år mere på næste udgivelse.”
