Info for Lindberg: Orchestral Music
This 4-album collector's box contains recordings of fifteen orchestral works by Grammy-nominated Magnus Lindberg. This specially priced anthology highlights the Finnish composer's oeuvre from 1982 to 2005, a period that follows the evolution of his compositional style from the early days of his career to more recent times. The featured works have helped to cement Lindberg's international position at the forefront of orchestral composition and have garnered him several important awards along the way (from the Prix Italia 1986 to the Wihuri Sibelius Prize 2003). He has been The New York Philharmonic's Composer-in-Residence since 2009.
These recordings were made between 1989 and 2008 and have been previously released by Ondine to international popular and critical acclaim.
Magnus Lindberg is one of the most important post-1945 orchestral composers. He has managed to create a unique synthesis: a distinct, personal, approachable language combined with orchestral virtuosity in the spirit of Strauss, Ravel and Stravinsky.' (Esa-Pekka Salonen)
„The prolific Finn is among the doughtiest writers for large orchestra. This compilation allows one to trace a development from the madcap modernism of Kraft to the eloquent, if thwacking, concision of the two Correntes, and the ceremonious directness of Sculpture.“
(Paul Driver, The Sunday Times)
