5.0 out of 5 stars There's more music in Finland than Sibelius' you know, 18 May 2009
By Charles Voogd (Underwaterland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Don't get me wrong. I love Sibelius' music and am happy all his music can be bought on CD.
Happily Finnish (and some other) CD-companies don't forget other Finnish composers. That's because such an impressive row of composers is available from that source: think of Rautavaara and Aho - the living ones - but also Klami, Merikanto, Madetoja and Englund are well presented on disc.
This 6th symphony and the Cello concerto of Einar Einglund are recording premieres I think. Don't miss them. Why?
The Cello concerto is a piece which should be played by every cellist looking for a great, tonal concerto which has much bravura and technical difficulties to cope. It's a stunning tonal work in a very compact and interesting structure. It sings and it's a real concerto: there's a real conflict between soloist and orchestra going on - the orchestral writing is very rewarding and beautiful done - and solved in the last moments.
Sometimes cellist complain there're not many interesting cello concerto's, but I think that's not true. Put this on the repertoire and play the Dvorak a little less.

The symphony is a work for chorus and orchestra. The central scherzo is a very fast and expertly orchestrated piece of attractive and joking music with a grim face. The singing is in Finnish but that's a beautiful language to sing. I didn't understand a word of it but the vocal parts are just beautiful. The orchestral writing sounds like every corner of the orchestra is explored. The thinking is not very Nordic - like Sibelius' - but more the British like Vaughan Willams and/or Karl Hartmann's explosive music.

If I would come new to Englund's music I'd start with this disc. Ondine's recording of the 3rd and 7th symphony is also very attractive. Then you could switch to the recording of the 5th - a very interesting one-movement work in the manner of Sibelius' 7th and his Tapiola which is coupled with the filmic music `The Great Wall of China'.
