Irčne Mannheimer, well-known for her recordings and performances of the Romantic repertoire, here performs a majestic work for piano and orchestra in a style comparable with that of Saint-Saëns. The solo works are both intense and dramatic.

Again Atterberg shows great skill in orchestral writing. Both symphonies use much folklore. Performances were highly praised, particularly among orchestra members, when the CD was recorded. A must for all collectors of Atterberg!

Second Huber CD. Normally the serenade would be a fill up… Not at all! This is a true poetic piece - very Mendelsohnian. Symphony, really a violin concerto, illustrates vividly a poem with a happy ending. Again what a truly great discovery Huber is!

Andreas Hallén  - Ett Juloratorium (A Christmas Oratorio)
ID: CDS1028-2

Type: CD
Collection: World Premiere Recording
Subcollection: Christmas Music

It is impossible to recognise the grumbling old man Hallén in his music. Contemporaries thought of him as impossible. But the truth is probably that he was uncompromising in his musical ideals. This is a truly stunning Christmas Oratorio for everybody fed up with Christmas music. Of course never recorded before!!

Rubenson: what a character! Starting off as a composer with fresh ideas, returning from Germany in the mid 1850s, he ended up as a strongly conservative professor at the Stockholm Musical Academy. What a sad fate, with many promises unfulfilled! Goodman regards the composer as a very interested figure in Swedish musical history - with many gifted ideas - linked to Schumann.

Atterberg, Kurt: Piano Concerto; Violin Concerto
ID: CDS1034-2
CDs: 1
Type: CD
Subcollection: Piano

This is the true fill up in the catalogue. Neither of these concertos has been recorded before. They are written in romantic style (what do you think??). The second movement of the Piano Concerto track 2, should make this concerto just as wellknown as the Grieg or Schumann concertos.

1-3: Dan Franklin Smith (Piano)
4 - 6: Christian Berqvist (Violin)

At the Turn of the Century; Cantata for the 1917 Reformation Festivies in Uppsala; The Bells. Lena Hoel, soprano; Karl-Magnus Fredriksson, baritone; Royal Philharmonic Choir of Stockholm; Gävle Symphony Orchestra conducted by Stefan Parkman..

Truly jubilant works, worthy of introducing new Centuries! The Bells gives another dimension of Alfvéns works. All of a sudden this composer of Romantic tradition writes music with a new direction. Great premieres to cherish!.

Again Huber proves to be a very distinguished composer. Both symphonies could best be described as jovial, jolly and spicy! A remarkable third movement in third symphony with a waltz theme of remarkable charm. Could easily be used as a separate ballet piece. Side theme in Symphony no 6, first movement, of stunning beauty!

August Söderman - Swedish Folk Songs & Folk Dances

August Söderman - Swedish Folk Songs & Folk Dances

CDs: 1
Type: CD
Collection: World Premiere Recording
Subcollection: Orchestra

Swedish Folksongs & Folk Dances; Bellman Melodies; Zohrab; Concert Overture in F, etc. Symphony Orchestra of Norrlands Opera conducted by Roy Goodman.

A charming collection of August Söderman's music. He holds a place in many Swedish hearts. His music is heard at special occations like weddings and ceremonial gatherings. His music is folksy, with a somewhat idyllic nature. He had a real gift for melody -but did not find time or possibility to write big orchestral music. Still much recommended.
