The other day I had a rare opportunity to spend time in a CD store with some unusual material and pounced on a Musica Sveciae CD of Peterson-Berger's 3rd Symphony, Romance for Violin and Orchestra, and Gullebarn's Lullabies, a cycle for mezzo and orchestra. I wasn't really sure what to expect: Peterson-Berger is one of those composers I've read about, including on the list, but have heard only snippets of his music. I listened to the symphony first and found it immediately attractive, but the real find was Gullebarn's Lullabies, which is sung by Anne Sofie von Otter. I've loved the BIS CD of Sibelius songs with orchestra for years, but this cycle is, IMHO, at least their equal. I'm now anxious to lay my hands on some more of this apparently highly interesting composer. Any suggestions? Richard Pennycuick [log in to unmask]
