Description: | Bright and lively music from the Swedish composer Dag Wirén is unveiled here in surround - sound by the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and Rumon Gamba, only a few years after the completion of their Grammy - nominated and highly acclaimed series devoted to the neglected orchestral treasures of Vincent dâ??Indy. In this unique recording Gamba uses the large body of a full symphonic string section, rather than the somewhat smaller - scale chamber orchestra setup that has tended to be used for this music in the past. The effect is a more complete expression of the wit and strength of these works. Designed to â??entertain and amuseâ??, as the composer put it in a note, the widely popular Serenade for Strings is here given an even more brilliant and powerful touch. - .. SINFONIETTA/SERENADE FOR STRINGS/SYMPHONY NO.3/DIVERBright and lively music from the Swedish composer Dag Wiren is unveiled here in surround-sound by the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and Rumon Gamba, only a few years after the completion of their Grammy-nominated and highly acclaimed series devoted to the neglected orchestral treasures of Vincent d'Indy. In this unique recording Gamba uses the large body of a full symphonic string section, rather than the somewhat smaller-scale chamber orchestra setup that has tended to be used for this music in the past. The effect is a more complete expression of the wit and strength of these works. Designed to 'entertain and amuse,' as the composer put it in a note, the widely popular Serenade for Strings is here given an even more brilliant and powerful touch. Other, lesser-known works on the album similarly showcase a composer of fascinating range, who could write light and humorous pieces such as the Sinfonietta and the lively Symphony No. 3, as well as powerful rhythmical, and serious works, of which the later Divertimento is an example. |
