Collection: World Premiere Recording Subcollection: OrchestreArmas 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! |

Collection: World Premiere Recording Subcollection: OrchestreAgain 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! |

Collection: World Premiere Recording Subcollection: OrchestreAn 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. |

Collection: World Premiere Recording Subcollection: OrchestreSecond 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! |

Collection: World Premiere Recording Subcollection: Christmas MusicIt 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!! |

Collection: World Premiere Recording Subcollection: OrchestreAgain 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! |

Collection: World Premiere Recording Subcollection: OrchestreIn modern reference works, Ludwig Philipp Scharwenka appears only as a sort of footnote: in description of the German musical scene and the conservatory situation in the second half of the 19th century, or when discussing his rather more famous brother Xaver. Nowadays Scharwenka is almost deleted from concert programs During the composers lifetime the situation was different. He and his younger brother were eminent figures in the musical landscape of the so-called imperial Germany. They exercised a determined influence on musical education of the period, their works were highly valued and performed by musicians of the highest calibre. |

Subcollection: PianoBy the time Joachim Raff began composing works for solo instruments and orchestra, he had been in Franz Liszt’s inner circle for several years as a full participants in the Weimar avant-garde. Having been intimately involved in the creation and orchestration of the earliest versions of at least two of Liszt’s three formally-named piano concerti, it is not surprising therefore, that Raff’s own first concerto followed, in a general sort of way, Liszt’s model of interconnected, thematically related movements. |
