(Like a Silver Jewel - Swedish Lieder Vol. I)
Håkanson, Knut/ Jonsson, Josef/ Eriksson, Josef/ Fryklöf, Harald/ Nystroem, Gösta/ Haquinius, Algot
A prolific and vigorous lieder tradition runs like a golden thread through Swedish music of the past two centuries. The two volumes features some of the most eminent vocal composers of the first half of the 20th century. Their choices of poetry were supremely personal, and their musical interpretations do more than just illustrate the text, probing the depths where words end and the music takes over. This is No. 7 in the series Musica Sveciae Modern Classics. |
