Wilhelm Stenhammar (1871-1927) was a Swedish pianist, conductor and composer. His compositions include incidental music, operas, concerts, two symphonies and choral works. Initially influenced above all by Wagner and Bruckner, Stenhammar increasingly welcomed in his music a Nordic colour as well as melodic and rhythmic characters typical of Swedish folklore. Completed in 1921, the cantata SÃ¥ngen (The Song) was Stenhammar's last major work, and its combination of harmonic richness and contrapuntal dexterity ensured it awarm reception. The Interlude connecting the two halves of the work is the only part frequently performed today. It begins by creating a serious andintimate atmosphere, then the music gradually unfolds in increasingly powerful sonorities. Towards the middle a noble brass chorale emerges, but neither this nor the following finely crafted climax manage to change the prevailing mood of subtle melancholy typical of late Romantic Scandinavian composers. This arrangement by Franco Cesarini will allow your audience to get to know this great composer unknown to most.

Stenhammar's 1895 set of three fantasies are among the finest of the Swedish composer's early-period works. They are fairly Brahms-like in their musical language, but nevertheless bear the individual stamp of this composer, whose music stands as a unique voice in a Scandinavian world dominated by figures such as Grieg and Sibelius. This new score is a digitally-restored reissue of the one first issued around 1900 by Nordisk Musikforlag of Copenhagen. Unlike so many of the on-demand scores now available, this one comes with all the pages and the images have been thoroughly checked to make sure it is readable. The score is beautifully printed on large size (9 x 12) off-white stock with a quality cover, all saddle-stitched in the traditional sheet music binding. As with all PLP scores a percentage of each sale is donated to the amazing online archive of free music scores and recordings, IMSLP - Petrucci Music Library.

Completed in 1914, this suite (whose title translates as Nights of Late Summer) is one of the Swedish masters last and greatest piano works, with a wistful and bittersweet quality that is quite unlike anything else. Originally to include seven sections, Stenhammar cut out two for the final version, which is the one offered here - in a handsome digitally-restored reissue of the edition first published in 1916 by Wilhelm Hansen of Copenhagen. In contrast to many of the on-demand scores now available, this one comes with all the pages and the images have been thoroughly checked to make sure it is readable. The score is beautifully printed on large size (9 x 12) off-white stock with a quality cover, all saddle-stitched in the traditional sheet music binding. As with all PLP scores a percentage of each sale is donated to the amazing online archive of free music scores and recordings, IMSLP - Petrucci Music Library.

Hilding Rosenberg (1892-1985) has been described as the first Swedish modernist composer. Influenced by Sibelius in his early years, he later absorbed the work of Stravinsky, Schoenberg, and Hindemith. His teachers included Hermann Scherchen and Wilhelm Stenhammar. Beginning to compose larger works around the age of 30, he wrote eight symphonies, a variety of music for string quartet, and a number of theatrical pieces including opera. Working with producer Per Lindberg in the 1920s, he was asked to compose incidental music to a play by Spanish author Jacinto Benaventes. The Marionettes successfully premiered in 1926. Rosenberg later used material from the work to fashion an opera. He also reconstructed it into a Dance Suite for the concert hall and this Overture in 1937. Instrumentation: 2.2.2.2: 2.2.0.0: Timp: Perc(3): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set). Reprint edition.
