Piano Recital: Petersson, Carl - NØRGÅRD, P. / LYKKEBO, F. / BISGAARD, L.A. (Contemporary Danish Piano Music)
Per Nørgård is regarded as the most important contemporary Danish composer, but his impressive early piano works, foreshadowing significant elements of his mature style, have never before appeared on CD. These include the youthfully joyous and bravura Toccata and the symphonic-scaled Sonate, Op. 6 influenced by Sibelius and Holmboe. Finn Lykkebo’s atonal Tableaux are poetic pearls of precision and economy, while the deeply symbolic and challenging Stadier and other works represent Lars Aksel Bisgaard’s complete piano music.
