Scandinavian en Baltic music
Northern Lights XIX.
In Noorderlicht, every fortnight an hour exclusively devoted to Scandinavian and Baltic music. There are no limits to our search, surrounded by old and new, known and less known. And we also like to include the whole spectrum of classical music and crossovers. Today we feature the first Finnish ballet from 1930 by Erkki Melartin and recent work by the young Let Eriks Esenvelds.
In this episode:
– Erkki Melartin. The Blue Pearl op. 160 (1930). Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Hannu Linto.
– Eriks Esenvalds. Passion and Resurrection (2005). Britten Sinfonia & Polyphony conducted by Stephen Layton with Carolyn Sampson, soprano.
