Danish firm of music publishers. It was founded in Copenhagen (1853) by Jens Wilhelm Hansen. At first issuing mainly educational and salon music, it soon began to publish new works by Danish composers including Gade and Hartmann; in 1879 it acquired a virtual monopoly of the music trade in Denmark. Branches in Leipzig (1887), Oslo (1909), Stockholm (1915) and Frankfurt (1951) have secured its promotion of northern European composers, notably Nielsen, Svendsen, Stenhammar and Sibelius; Wilhelm Hansen is now the leading Scandinavian publisher.
