Rued Langgaard - Symphony Nos. 15 "Søstormen" and 16 "Syndflod af Sol" - Orchestral Works - Danish National Vocal Ensemble - Danish National Choir Danish National Symphony Orchestra, Thomas Dausgaard - Dacapo 2008

This is a great survey of Rued Langgaard's music in it's early stages right on up towards the end of the composer's life (Symphony No. 16 - imo one of his finest - was completed one year before his passing). The entire Langgaard series on Dacapo is sublime, essential I think, and near perfection sonically and in reference to the performances throughout.





Enjoy everyone

Carl Nielsen: Complete Organ Works - Rued Langgaard: Selected Organ Works - Friedhelm Flamme, Organ - CPO 2010

I was listening to Nielsen's grand and expansive "Commotio" for Organ around 2 a.m. last night (incidentally "after-hours" or the middle of the night are great for organ music; this is not fact but my own general experience (oh give it a try, drink too much coffee perhaps late in the day if needed!) This disc couples Nielsen's complete organ music with pieces for organ by the oft wonderfully eccentric Rued Langgaard. I have to leave the house for a while so I will (possibly) babble/type more on this disc later - I tend to be ummm.....'flakey' and forgetful when it comes to resuming posts as some of you may have noticed it the past! But perhaps I will...





Anyhow...enjoy!
