About

CPO’s highly acclaimed complete edition of Allan Pettersson’s symphonies is now complete! In response to great demand, CPO are immediately offering this collection as a boxed set. “A magnificent interpretative feat!” was how FonoForum described the edition, which is the end result of over thirteen years hard work by several orchestras and conductors.
 
All the symphonies are performed spectacularly by various orchestras, interpreters and conductors in Allan Pettersson’s unusual and uncompromising orchestral language.
 
Some praise for the single CDs in the edition: “One of the most dazzling orchestral recordings of recent memory”. Fanfare on CD 2, “[you] would do well to invest in these humane readings of two highly charged testaments to the indomitability of the human will.” Gramophone on CD 8, “these new releases from the German company CPO, all recorded at fine live performances, will be warmly welcomed” Gramophone on CD 5.
