Some LP transfers and also some newly recorded overtures. They are really delightful, not the least the two pieces by Berwald, both recorded for the first time.

Ouverturer Å Kongl. Theatern. Jacopo Foroni (1825-1858) Overture No.3 in A major (c.1850); Franz Berwald (1796-1868) ‘The Dressmaker’ (1845) & ‘I enter a Monastery’ (1842); Ludwig Norman (1831-1885) Festive Overture (1882); Andreas Randel (1806-1864) ‘The People from Vårmland.’ (1846); August SÖderman (1832-1876) ‘The Devil’s First Tentative Efforts.’ (1856); Joseph Martin Kraus (1756-1792) ‘Proserpine’ (1780)

"Sterling CDs have done an excellent job in producing this recording of less than popular overtures by Swedish Composers. I always hesitate to use the words ‘less than popular’ because it can often have negative connotations. So let me state at the outset that these are all fine and well-crafted works that deserve to be better known." - MusicWeb
