Subcollection: Orchestra A tragedy, when the Finnish Romantic Ernst Mielck died at the young age of 22, dreams unfullfilled. He was an extremely gifted pupil of Max Bruch. His symphony is a dark beautiful drama, with a third movement filled with an inward quality. The concert piece is based on folk musik from Finland, with many charming melodies. |

Subcollection: Romantic Music Languages of Booklet Text: English, French, German
Sterling breaking new grounds! First CD from French part of Switzerland. More composers than Honegger made a mark in Europan music history. Maurices music is refined in late romantic and sometimes impressionistic style. Many pieces on the disc give a lasting impression of an extremely gifted and dynamic personality with all knowledge in orchestral writing. Grieg seems to have been a source of inspiration in the "Pécheur" and "Francesca". |

Collection: World Premiere Recording Subcollection: Orchestra WORLD PREMIERE
Three works with literary allusions by the brother of the well-known Xaver Scharwenka. These are pieces that show a more comtemplative side than most of his brother's works, from the eerily beautiful Frühlingswogen (after Turgenyev) to the delicate Liebesnacht, a theme from Tristan und Isolde. |

Collection: Early Romantics Subcollection: Orchestra Schnyder von Wartensee was an early romantic, and a good friend of Beethoven. His music is typical early romantic - perhaps more like Haydn and Schubert than like Beethoven.
Some rather weird twists in the symphony makes one believe that there was perhaps stronger stuff than milk in that "suppe". Lovely, engaging performance typical of Fifield and the Württembergische Philharmonie. |

Collection: World Premiere Recording Subcollection: Romantic Music Languages of Booklet Text: English, French, German
Another Swiss romantic! Herman Suter was the pupil and follower of Hans Huber. Mahler was very much the source of inspiration for Suter in the symphony. A drastic and colourful scherzo is followed by an intensely lyrical third movement! Jelmolis charming short pieces completes the disc. |

Collection: World Premiere Recording Subcollection: Violin Hallén was a true Wagnerian -but most of his works are or a rather more intimate scale. Gustaf Wasa may have been a king of war or unrest in Sweden but the suite that comes from a play is more subdued and peaceful. The other pieces are also rather intimate -and Hallén's orchestration is very skillful and personal. The opening piece, Romanze, betrays a debt to Hallén's teacher Reinecke. |

Collection: World Premiere Recording Subcollection: Orchestra Paul Dukas' oeuvre as a composer has always been very small, due to his (overly?) self-critical approach. The Symphony in C minor was a piece the composer cherished nonetheless. Here it is augmented by two great overtures he wrote in his student days, both modeled on examples from famous literature, by Goethe and Shakespeare. Both are world premiere recordings. This is a release that makes you regret that Dukas destroyed so many of his own works. |

Collection: Vocal Collection Subcollection: Vocal and Piano Karlfeldt and the gifted poet Erik Axel Karlfeldt were close friends. Many songs, among them "Time of waiting" are very famous in Sweden. Peterson-Bergers songs are very characteristic and it is obvious that he is influenced by folksong. Translations of all songs included. |
