    Tor Aulin was best known as a violinist. He toured for 20 years with his own string quartet, and later served as concertmaster of the Swedish Royal Opera Orchestra. During his touring years, Aulin composed his three violin concertos. Aulin often performed with his fellow countryman, Wilhelm Stenhammar. Like his colleague, Aulin wrote in a […]

    Nov 28th, 2018 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Andrew Manze, CD Review, Classical music, contemporary classical music, CPO, Helsingborg Symphony Orchestra, Lars-Erik Larsson, Orchestral music, SACD

    Andrew Manze Leads Larsson Revival

    Sep 8th, 2014 | By Ralph Graves
    Tags: Andrew Manze, CD Review, contemporary classical music, CPO, Helsingborg Sympohony, Lars-Erik Larsson, Orchestral music, SACD

    Swedish composer Lars-Erik Larsson is not well-known outside of his native country, but this new series from CPO may change that. Larsson is part of the generation immediately following Sibelius, and follows him stylistically as well. Larsson’s works are decidedly neo-romantic, with rich harmonies and expansive melodies. His Symphony No. 1, written in 1927, is […]
