In this Sonic Days Podcast episode, composer and sound researcher Marie Koldkjær Højlund shares the creative process behind the sound and music for Snedronningen (The Snow Queen), the Royal Danish Theatre’s large-scale outdoor production.

Through a series of sonic examples from the production, Marie explores how sound design, composition, and artistic collaboration helped shape the theatrical experience across two unique outdoor settings: Dyrehaven in Copenhagen and Moesgaard in Aarhus.

This episode offers insight into the concepts, decisions, and practical approaches involved in creating sound for performance beyond the traditional theatre space.
