After recording four volumes of symphonies for Naxos, Peter Sundqvist and the Swedish Chamber Orchestra have Kraus's deceptively sophisticated idiom under their belts. I like the horns and winds well to the fore… This disc shows that, like his more famous contemporary, the Swedish Mozart could turn his hand to light music with no loss of interest or personality.
