Börtz - His name was Orestes

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.
