This disc, featuring Kurt Atterberg’s Concertos for Cello and Horn, concludes cpo’s series of Atterberg’s concertos.

The Swedish composer composed these two works in the 1920s, and took an approach that was more intuitive than analytical - in the Horn Concerto included here, he employs the unusual combination of strings, piano and percussion to create a tonal phenomenon completely different from the Cello Concerto.
