Malmo Symphony Orchestra / Paul Magi

Lyrical songs and forceful orchestral climaxes from Swedish composer Rolf Martinsson

The music on Presentiment, a 2018 release with four orchestral works by Rolf Martinsson, was described
by one critic as ‘bold and uncompromisingly personal, eschewing avant-garde modernism and
engaging us with solidly expert conventional techniques of composition and orchestration’
(MusicWeb-International.com). The present disc features more of Martinsson’s music, performed by
the Malmo Symphony Orchestra – a body with which Martinsson has enjoyed a close relationship
as its composer in residence.

In two of the recorded works, the orchestra – conducted by Paul Magi – is joined by another of
Martinsson’s regular collaborators, the soprano Lisa Larsson. Larsson is the soloist in IchdenkeDein..., a
song cycle setting five poems by Goethe, Rilke and von Eichendorff, and in Into Eternity, a longer work
which in its second half incorporates two poems by the Swedish poet Karin Boye. Into Eternitywas
composed for the opening of the Malmo orchestra's new concert hall in 2015, and Martinsson wrote it,
as well as IchdenkeDein..., with Lisa Larsson in mind. Larsson also appears on the composer's
previous monograph on BIS, in his settings of poems by Emily Dickinson; a performance that led one
reviewer to proclaim her 'an expressive artist par excellence, who knows to savour every nuance of
the poems' (klassik-heute.de).
