Info zu Musica Da Camera

This music is inventive, melodic, (the tune that opens the 1st movement of the piece will haunt your brain for days), but in no sense whatsoever a pastiche of works by other composers. Morten Gaathaug is best described as an eclectic romantic and his music has an appealing freshness, clarity and originality that, on the basis of this album, should be much more widely known.

The ‘Quintet for Piano and Strings’ is written in a classical four-movement layout with two vigorous Allegros framing a delicious Scherzo and a lovely reflective Adagio. The performance by Ensemble Bjørvika, a quartet made up of players from the orchestra of the Norwegian National Opera, and Tore Dingstad (the dedicatee) is all one could ask for.
