This rather unusual CD of music for horn and organ features international horn player Sören Hermansson together with star organist Per-Ove Larsson.
The repertoire extends from an early work by Camille Saint Saëns (written in 1854) to Bernhard Krol's Missa Muta, written in about 1960.
The international array of composers represented includes: Henk Badings, Bernhard Reichel and Georg Hoeberg, though the main emphasis is on Sweden's folk music heritage: Oskar Lindberg's Gammal Fäbodpsalm, August Körling's Pastorale and Hugo Alfvén's Notturno Elegiaco.
This CD offers both romantic atmosphere and
sharper sounds with a variety of both colour and dynamics.
