The Mountain King (1/2)
Music from Alfven's ballet-pantomime The Mountain King with the Malm枚 Symphony Orchestra.
Ian Skelly introduces more recordings from around Europe.
This week's focus on Sweden continues with the first act of Hugo Alfv茅n's 'ballet-pantomime' The Mountain King, which requires huge orchestral forces to tell the story, and is performed here by the Malm枚 Symphony Orchestra with conductor Patrik Ringborg. There is also more music from guitarists Mats Bergstr枚m and G枚ran S枚llscher, recorded in March at the Helsingborg Guitar Festival, and a selection from the vocal ensemble Voces8, recorded at the Rheingau Festival in Germany. The 成人快手 Scottish Symphony Orchestra performs music by Swedish organist and composer Elfrida Andr茅e, while harpsichordist Mahan Esfahani switches to organ for Handel's Organ Concerto Op 4 No 4.
