The great Danish romantic composer Carl Nielsen took inspiration from a glorious summer in this overture named after the Greek God of the Sun. The music joyously and poetically depicts the sun over the Aegean Sea. Wistful, romantic and intense, Wagner's settings of Mathilde Wesendonck's poetry were written amidst rumours of an affair between the two. Leading mezzo soprano Petra Lang's sensitive interpretations of romantic lieder are compelling, intuitive and insightful. Nielsen's dramatic Fourth Symphony, also known as The Inextinguishable, explores the elemental life force within each of us. Sakari Oramo and the Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra bring Nielsen's poetic and lyrical works thrillingly to life. Run time: 1hr 40mins approxConductor Sakari Oramo. Performer Petra Lang (mezzo soprano).
