Hymnus Amoris
''Hymnus amoris'' ( da, Hymne til Kjærligheden; en, Hymn of Love), for soloists, choir and orchestra, Opus 12, is Carl Nielsen's earliest choral work. It was first performed at the Music Society (''Musikforeningen'') in Copenhagen on 27 April 1897 under the baton of the composer. Background Carl Nielsen was inspired to write ''Hymnus amoris'' in 1891 while on his honeymoon in Italy. He and his wife Anne Marie were both impressed by Titian's painting ''The Miracle of a Jealous Husband'' in Padua. After he had completed the score, his wife provided a drawing for the title page. On one of the copies, Nielsen wrote: "To my own Marie! These tones in praise of love are nothing compared to the real thing; but if you continue to show your affection for me, I will strive to achieve a higher expression of the world's strongest force, and then the two of us together will rise higher and higher towards the goal, as we constantly aspire for love in life and in art."

Tizian 023
Tiziano Vecelli or Vecellio (; 27 August 1576), known in English as Titian ( ), was an Italian (Venetian) painter of the Renaissance, considered the most important member of the 16th-century Venetian school. He was born in Pieve di Cadore, near Belluno. During his lifetime he was often called ''da Cadore'', 'from Cadore', taken from his native region.

His painting methods, particularly in the application and use of colour, exercised a profound influence not only on painters of the late Italian Renaissance, but on future generations of Western artists. His career was successful from the start, and he became sought after by patrons, initially from Venice and its possessions, then joined by the north Italian princ ...
