Börtz - His name was Orestes

Börtz:

Hans namn var Orestes, an oratorio to texts from Aeschylus’s Oresteia (2001–02)

Hans namn var Orestes (His name was Orestes), had its première in 2004. It is composed for narrator, vocal soloists, choir and large orchestra, and tells the tragic and bloody tale of the house of Atreus, in which every crime gives birth to a new crime, and revenge follows upon revenge.

En gycklares berättelser (A Joker’s Tales)

Concerto for recorder and orchestra (1999–2000)

Anita Björk (narrator), Annalena Persson, Ingrid Tobiasson, Marianne Eklöf, Anna Larsson, Anders Larsson, Olle Persson and Esa Ruuttunen (vocal soloists) & Dan Laurin (recorder)

Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra & Eric Ericson Chamber Choir, Alan Gilbert

“… a fine eye for detail and imaginatively spare use of full orchestral resources which now distinguishes Bortz as a composer of music drama.” Gramophone
