Compositions
Ludwig Otten composed mainly chamber music, some orchestral works and music for brass ensembles. He received several commissions (i.e. from the Dutch government and the Johan Wagenaar Foundation) and a grant. In general his work is characterized by 'Spielfreudigkeit' and certainly not by progressiveness. He has an unconcealed admiration for Maurice Ravel and the Dutch author W.F. Hermans.

He was granted De Gulden Adelaar (The golden eagle), a cultural prize by the City of Deventer.
