KAMMARENSEMBLEN - KAMMARENSEMBLEN (CD)

"New music which is not academic, a record which can demolish many prejudices" was one reviewer's verdict on this record, in which KammarensembleN, under its sadly short-lived founder and conductor Ansgar Krook, plays music by Anders Eliasson and Henrik Strindberg, among others. Most of the five works in this recording were written expressly for the group, whose members include several of the most skilful and renowned instrumentalists in the younger generation of Swedish musicians.
