Adam Price, who produced the international hit ‘Borgen’ on Danish television, has been working intensively on a series called ‘Orkestret’, about life in a national orchestra.

Production has now been halted after Denmark went into a pandemic of soul-searching over years of sexual abuse in the national girls’ choir. Apparently, Price’s script runs close to these lines. We won’t be seeing ‘Orkestret’ any time soon.

Price, who also created the magnificent ‘Ride Upon a Storm’ (pictured), will not be idle. He owns six restaurants in Copenhagen.
