Per Aage Brandt

Per Aage Brandt (Danish: [ˈpʰɛɐ̯ ˈɔːwə ˈpʁɑnˀt]; 26 April 1944 – 11 November 2021) was a Danish writer, poet, linguist and musician, born in Buenos Aires.

Brandt published a large number of books on the subjects of semiotics, linguistics, culture, and music as well as poetry.

He has translated Molière and Marquis de Sade, amongst others, and in 2000 he translated (or "re-wrote" in Danish) the poetry collection Cantabile by Henrik, the prince consort of Denmark.

Some of his translations were subsequently set to music in Frederik Magle's symphonic suite Cantabile.
