'Nordic Spring' features some of the best examples of string music from the Scandinavian region. One of the most famous works in the genre, Grieg's Holberg Suite, is followed by Kurt Atterberg's Suite for violin, viola and string orchestra, a piece notable for its transcendent beauty and passion. The soloists here are Lars Anders Tomter and Terje Txf8nnesen, who also performs the violin part in Svendsen's charming Romance, Op 26. The set also includes Nielsen's first published work the Little Suite in A minor and Sibeliusxb4 Valse triste, as well as the world premiere recording of Serenade for viola and orchestra by the Norwegian composer Edvard Brxe6in (1887-1957) with Lars Anders Tomter as soloist.
