composed by Alban Berg, Claude Debussy, Frédéric Chopin, Gustav Mahler, Hugo Wolf, Knut Nystedt, Maurice Ravel, Samuel Barber

For some ensembles, the printed score of a composition is merely a stimulus to new creative activity. There's nothing intrinsically wrong with this, and massive revision of a work in the process of remaking it for new forces has a long list of historical precedents. The Transcriptions disc by the French a cappella chamber chorus Accentus features ...

This is one of those best-of-all-possible worlds releases, with the nearly 80-year-old Swedish choral conductor Eric Ericson (he split the Polar Music Prize with Bruce Springsteen a few years back) leading the gorgeous young French chamber choir Accentus. At times it's almost too perfect -- something like going out on a date with someone too ...

performed by James Gilchrist (tenor), Mona Julsrud (soprano), Oslo Philharmonic Chamber Choir (choir, chorus), Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra, Arild Remmereit (conductor)
composed by Knut Nystedt

Like many composers of his generation, Knut Nystedt abandoned avant-garde and adopted a neo-Romantic style which, for better or worse, reflects the conservative zeitgeist at the millennium. Nystedt's Apocalypsis Joannis (2000) is an uncomfortably reactive work, pretentious in its religiosity and confused in its musical references. Sounding by ...

composed by Knut Nystedt

It's quite an achievement to become famous in one's lifetime, even to be hailed as a great master, yet the creators of Immortal Nystedt seem to have presented the esteemed Norwegian composer his eternal reward a bit prematurely. Knut Nystedt is indeed celebrated in his country, and he has been honored with a knighthood in the Order of St. Olav for ...
