Camarada: Nordic Landscapes
Camarada unveils the essence of the Nordic spirit through music of Edvard Grieg, Carl Nielsen, Christian Sinding, Jean Sibelius, and Kalevi Aho. The music of these composers evokes the fjords, mountains, valleys, and vast horizons of the Nordic landscape. Camarada’s smorgasbord of offerings includes Nielsen’s Quintet for Winds, which is considered one of the finest compositions in the woodwind quintet repertoire. Grieg is well represented in this Nordic feast with a quintessentially romantic piano trio and a rustic folk-song medley. Upon hearing, you will soon fall in love with Sinding’s Romanze and Sibelius’ charming piano Impromptu. Also represented in the Nordic Landscapes performance is a newcomer to the Scandinavian scene, Kalevi Aho, one of today’s leading Finnish composers, with his Ballade for flute, bassoon, cello, and piano.
