Atterberg, Kurt: Symphonies No. 7 & 8


cds-1026

CDS 1026-2 Kurt Atterberg (1887-1974): Symphony No 7, Op 45 (1941/2) "Sinfonia Romantica"; Symphony No 8, Op 48 (1944/45). Malmö Symphony Orchestra conducted by Michail Jurowski.

Again 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!.
