Description:

An album of lovely small Swedish pieces! This album is a collection of works composed from the 19th century to the present day that, despite their beauty, have been forgotten. Most of the pieces are only a couple of minutes long, and the compositions range from familiar Scandinavian folk tunes to disturbing shadows and modern leaps, but they are all lovely and charming pieces that jump out at you as you listen to them. The music is performed by Forsberg, one of Sweden's leading pianists, who has successfully recorded several albums with dB Prodictions. He is deeply attuned to the works and brings out their charms naturally. Naxos Japan
