Carl Nielsen's rhapsody overture ''An Imaginary Trip to the Faroe Islands'' (''En Fantasirejse til Færøerne''), is a musical composition for orchestra. The Royal Danish Theatre in Copenhagen commissioned the piece for a gala concert celebrating a visit from the Faroe Islands. The composer conducted the premiere on 27 November 1927. ==Background==
In a letter to his wife dated 4 January 1927, Nielsen wrote: "Now over the next 8-10 days I have to write an overture to mark a big Faroese gala at the Royal Theatre supported by the State... I will use motifs from the Faroese ballads, and I can easily manage that, and it will give me some pleasure as it is good that we do something for them." In fact the visit was postposed until November owing to an influenza epidemic.〔Niels Bo Foltmann, "Rhapsodic Overture: A Fantasy Voyage to the Faroe Islands", Orchestral Works 2, (Carl Nielsen Edition ), ''Royal Danish Library''. Retrieved 8 November 2010.〕 There were only two performances of the work during Nielsen's lifetime, both of them in connection with the Faroese celebrations. The first was at the Royal Theatre on 27 November 1927, the second at a concert in Copenhagen City Hall with the Copenhagen Philharmonic Orchestra.〔
