album preview

John Frandsen's orchestral music is consistently delicate and seems to have a Late Romantic aura. But behind the lyrical and immediately appealing lies a tight structure. The movement of the figurations has an inherent dynamic logic that relentlessly drives the music forward. This new CD offers premiere recordings of John Frandsen's First Symphony, Dance of the Demons, his concerto for cello and orchestra, the Amalie Suite, and an aria from the opera I-K-O-N. The Odense Symphony Orchestra and Norwegian Christian Eggen are the main artists featured on the CD.
