Overview
This Caprice Records release celebrates three prominent Swedish composers, Gösta Nystroem, Ture Rangström, and Sven-Eric Johanson, whose works reflect the musical heritage of Gothenburg. The compositions are performed by distinguished soloists and orchestras, delivering a rich exploration of Swedish classical music across various styles and periods.
Each composer has ties to Gothenburg: Gösta Nystroem worked there as a music critic, Ture Rangström served as principal conductor of the Gothenburg Orchestral Society, and Sven-Eric Johanson is regarded as a modern "house composer" for the city.
