Product Description

Immerse yourself in the rich orchestral works of Swedish composer Kurt Atterberg with this captivating album, released on BIS Records in 1992. The centerpiece is Atterberg's Symphony No. 6 in C Major, Op. 31, affectionately known as the "Dollar Symphony," a testament to his distinctive voice in the early 20th-century symphonic landscape. The symphony unfolds in three movements: a robust Moderato, a serene Adagio, and a lively Vivace, each showcasing Atterberg's mastery of orchestration and thematic development.

Complementing the symphony are two additional gems: "En varmlandsrapsodi (a Varmland Rhapsody), Op. 36," a picturesque piece inspired by the scenic landscapes of Varmland, and "Ballad utan ord (Ballad Without Words), Op. 56," a lyrical and introspective work that highlights Atterberg's ability to convey deep emotion through music. With a total duration of just over an hour, this album offers a comprehensive exploration of Atterberg's orchestral repertoire, making it a valuable addition to any classical music enthusiast's collection.
