Olivier Mesiaen: O sacrum convivium
Noors Solistenkoor / Grete Perdersen "Refractions" is the fourth disc to appear on BIS with the Norwegian Soloists’ Choir and their conductor Grete Pedersen, and follow on Grieg interpretations ‘of breathtaking beauty’ (Le Monde de la Musique), a programme inspired by Norwegian folk music containing ‘some of the most striking and moving singing put down on disc for years’ (Gramophone), and most recently a disc of works by Brahms and Schubert, on which the choir, according to the reviewer for All Music Guide ‘sings with pristine intonation and purity, yet its tone is full, warm, and colourful.’ "Refractions" contains choir music by Olivier Messiaen (O Sacrum, Cinq Rechants), Alban Berg (Die Nachtigall), Anton Webern (Entflieht auf leichten Kähnen, Zwei Lieder) and Norwegian composer Fartein Valen (Hvad est du dog skiøn, Kom regn fra det høie, Ave Maria, Der 121. Psalm). |
