Elfrida Andrée - Symphony in A minor; Fritiof Suite. Stockholm Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gustaf Sjökvist.

Elfrida Andrée was a Reinecke pupil, as is obvious from the symphony's big brass chorale melodies. The Fritiof Suite shows this even more! Originally conceived as an opera, the work was shortened into a symphonic suite written with surprising independence by the foremost Swedish lady organist. How is it possible that music of this quality could be forgotten?

Ruben Liljefors -Symphony in E flat major, Op. 14; Piano Concerto in F minor, Op. 5.

Liljefors was the leading figure head in orchestral life in the city of Gävle. The symphony, again influenced by Swedish folk-music, is in a personal, densely orchestrated style, with an impressive and moody second movement. All lovers of great romantic piano concertos will surely enjoy this one, by the romantic specialist Irčne Mannheimer.

Here is something very special. A grand, 57-minute, monumental romantic orchestral symphony, again written by an organ specialist. A truly great work with a slow, absolutely stunning third movement! This CD has already received high praise in the specialist press, resulting in excellent sales. Otto Olsson could have written many great orchestral works had he been allowed to develop his orchestral talents.

Armas Järnefelt was a great advocate of his brother-in-law Jean Sibelius. Järnefelt was himself a master of instrumentation, and his works on this CD, among them the well-known Prćludium and Berceuse, are all well worth hearing!

Subcollection: Orchestra

An absolute revelation. A truly great discovery of a very individual romantic composer, well established during his lifetime and then, quite shamefully, forgotten. Huber was the leading romantic composer in Switzerland at the end of the last century. Partly individual, partly in Brahmsian style, his works show all great mastery of orchestral writing.

W. Stenhammar - Err folk (One Poeple); Kantat till Allmänna Konst- och Industriutställningen (Stockholm Exhibition Cantata).
ID: CDS1023-2
CDs: 1
Type: CD
Collection: World Premiere Recording

Released to mark the anniversary of the 1897 Stockholm Exhibition, these works are truly monumental in scale, written by a composer whose severe self-criticism resulted in him writing very little. There are some stunningly written choral sections with a near Shostakovichian sense of drama in the Exhibition Cantata - which is seldom heard and played. This is supposedly one of the biggest recordings ever made in Sweden.
