Thanks.
Heartily seconded - you're referring to the Concerto Ricercante of 1959 - quite a tough piece if I remember rightly. A good composer, sometimes too indebted to Honegger - evinced by his best known work the Sinfonia del Mare after Ebba Lindqvist. But he often wrote music that echoes the serene but icy spirit of Sweden's beautiful landscapes.

Some months ago I put up a worklist of Nystroem on Wikipedia - if anyone can add to it, please do:

Another Palmgren piece that I acquired tonight.

Vårbäckarnas brus (The Rushing of the Spring Brooklets). Work Without Opus.

600 dpi, and the two tone color covers that Wilhelm Hansen liked to use. :)

Camillo Alphonzo Johannes Peter Carlsen (1876-1948).

Danish composer and organist. Held the post as Organist in Roskilde Cathedral from 1911-1946. This is where we bury our kings and queens here in Denmark, so quite an important position.
