- SWEDISH MINIATURES


New CD from - our GREAT DUO ARTISTs DUO GELLAND ~ A CD with first recording of contemporary Swedish Miniature Violin Duets with music by Swedish Masters, taking us from the national romantic era up to now, lending each miniature a character and a soul of its own. Small pieces by:
Wilhelm Peterson-Berger ~ Hans Holewa ~ Ture Rangström ~
Werner Wolf Glaser ~ Lille Bror Söderlundh ~ Edvin Kallstenius ~
Bo Linde ~ Maurice Karkoff ~ Ingvar Karkoff ~ Inger Wikström ~ Håkan Larsson ~ Hans-Erik Dahlgren ~ Cecilia Franke ~
Krister Hansén ~ Erika Förare ~ Johan Samskog.


Duo Gelland, established in 1994, has revived an 18th-century concept,
the violin duo, and turned it into a driving force of contemporary exploration.

The ensemble has received more than 100 dedications - mostly violin duos, but also several concertos for violin duo and orchestra or choir. It has given the first performance of a handful of these compositions in the Berliner Philharmonie. Parallel to this work, the Gellands research and revive the vast forgotten violin duo repertory of the 18th century. That fruitful interplay between new and old is central in how Duo Gelland operates.
