Description
This CD is a special one: it commemorates the 100th birthday of the Norwegian composer and organist Leif Solberg (b. 1914) and will be launched at a concert to celebrate the occasion - in the presence of the composer (and his wife: they have been together for 79 years!).Solberg's only symphony (1950-51) is a major discovery: it confirms the contrapuntal mastery evident in his magisterial organ works, investing it with a touch of sardonic humour and the dancing rhythms of Norwegian folk-music.The choral Good Friday Meditation, by contrast, points to the lyrical side of his muse.
