KARKOFF, INGVAR - FENIX (CD)

The sensual plays an important part in Ingvar Karkoff's creativity, and this is music to be experienced through all the listener's senses. Karkoff is an all-round composer who sometimes also writes and arranges film music (the music for Adam och Eva, for example). This recording features Texture, the work which Karkoff wrote at the end of the 1970s and which made his reputation, and more recent orchestral compositions like Fenix and Carnavalito (little fleshly dance), which he wrote 15 years later. Three chamber music compositions are also included. (label info) Performer: Carron, Tobias / Malmö Symphony Orchestra / SAMI Sinfonietta / Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra / The Swedish Brass Quintet
