Info zu Nielsen: Clarinet Concerto; Helios; Symphony No. 5
Edward Gardners Reihe von Nielsen-Sinfonien mit dem Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra wird mit dieser Aufnahme der Nr. 5 fortgesetzt, ergänzt durch die Ouvertüre Helios und das Klarinettenkonzert mit Alessandro Carbonare als Solist. Nielsen komponierte Helios 1903 auf einer Reise nach Griechenland, als seine Frau Anne Marie, eine Bildhauerin, ein Stipendium für die Kopie von Skulpturen auf der Akropolis erhalten hatte. Das Werk dauert zehn bis zwölf Minuten und schildert den Sonnenaufgang, den Mittag und den Sonnenuntergang über der Ägäis. Es ist eines der meistgespielten Werke des Komponisten. Das Klarinettenkonzert stammt aus dem Jahr 1928 und besteht aus einem langen Satz, der in vier Abschnitte unterteilt ist. Es ist Nielsens Freund Aage Oxenvad gewidmet, der es uraufführte. Die zwischen 1920 und 1922 komponierte Fünfte Symphonie ist ungewöhnlicherweise in nur zwei Sätzen angelegt und das einzige Werk von Nielsen, das diese Struktur aufweist. Im Gegensatz zu seinen anderen reifen Symphonien hat die Fünfte keinen Untertitel und könnte daher im Vergleich zu den eher beschreibenden anderen Werken als reinere Musik angesehen werden. Nielsen beschrieb die Sinfonie als die Trennung von Dunkelheit und Licht, den Kampf zwischen Gut und Böse und den Gegensatz zwischen Träumen und Taten. Von vielen als Kriegs-Sinfonie angesehen, bestand Nielsen darauf, dass er beim Komponieren des Werks nicht an den Ersten Weltkrieg gedacht habe, merkte aber auch an, dass keiner von uns mehr derselbe sei wie vor dem Krieg.
