| |  | Opera in a Prologue and Three Acts; Sung in FinnishStage Direction by Kalle Holmberg & Stage Design by Juha-Pekka Kiljunen From the Savonlinna Opera Festival 1995
Veijo Varpio, Jaana Mäntynen, Sauli Tiilikainen, Jorma Silvasti, Tom Krause & Ritva-Liisa Korhonen Chorus and Orchestra of the Savonlinna Opera Festival., Okko Kamu “[Sallinen] managed to get around the miasma of avant-garde cliches that followed worldwide disenchantment with the Second Viennese School without ending up in the ice-cream churn of neo-Romanticism. Not that his music hasn’t been neo-Romantic in recent years, but Sallinen has his own personality and style – a Finnish George Rochberg one might say – both elfin and somber. … The clash of disparate blocks of sound can last whole movements, but underneath flows a Stygian stream of implied disenchantment with the dark side of mankind, and a barely suppressed violence that suddenly erupts like a geyser.” Classical CD Review | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
