About

Truly jubilant works, worthy of introducing new centuries! The Bells gives another dimension of Alfvén's works. All of a sudden this composer of Romantic tradition writes music with a new direction. Great premieres to cherish!

"The bright, Christmasy harmonies and novel orchestration create a festive mood. Karl-Magnus Fredriksson's singing is beautifully convincing throughout the piece, which travels through darkness before reemerging into light for a wonderful conclusion"
