Allen...The Nielsen Concerto (1928) is written without key signature. He adds accidentals as needed, and modulations happen strictly by use of altered notes only, no change of key signature.

Katfish...The reason for the number of double flats in this work is strictly for notational ease. It is used to prevent him from writing an excess of natural signs, or, to permit a previously flatted note to carry through the bar. It really is clearer to do it this way, although it sometimes looks a bit daunting...GBK
