'Variations over Variations' presents four Norwegian composers - Alfred Janson, Knut Vaage, Maja Ratkje and Jan Erik Mikalsen - and their works, performed and commissioned by The Norwegian Radio Orchestra, under their Chief Conductor, the Grammy-nominated and Emmy Award-winner Miguel Harth-Bedoya. \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e'Variations over Variations' is a great snapshot of contemporary Norwegian orchestral music. The four works enters into a dialogue with existing music and a music history that binds them together, in very different ways. Some places musical quotes open up a door to the Norwegian, other places it re-contextualises the idea of a national music. Tine is featured on the title track in Janson's trumpet concerto 'Variations over variations on a Norwegian folk tune', a variation over Edvard Grieg's 'Ballad in G minor'. Ratkje's 'Paragraf 112' expands the orchestra's ordinary timbre and establishes a vulnerable openness which later turns darker and more dangerous. Mikalsen's folk-inspired 'Songr' moves between grand orchestral roars and fragile chords, while Vaage's 'Mylder' could be described as a symphonic internet where the surface seems strangely familiar.\u003c\/p\u003e \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePersonnel: Tine Thing Helseth (trumpet), Norwegian Radio Orchestra, Miguel Harth-Bedoya (conductor)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlfred Janson: Variations over variations over a Norwegian folk tune\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJan Erik Mikalsen: Songr for Orchestra, I.
