Ondine continues its series of recordings of Magnus Lindberg's music - this time chamber music from the 2000s.
Magnus Lindberg has written many pieces for clarinettist Kari Kriikku and cellist Anssi Karttunen, two important figures on the contemporary music scene in Finland.
The Clarinet Trio - including fine reminiscences of Brahms and Ravel - now brings these two musicians together, joined by the composer himself on the piano.
Kari Kriikku has premiered all of Magnus Lindberg's works for clarinet. His recording of the Clarinet Concerto earned him both a Gramophone Award and a BBC Music Magazine Award in 2006.
Anssi Karttunen is a passionate advocate for contemporary music. 24 concertos have been written for him and he premiered Magnus Lindberg's cello concerto.
GRAMOPHONE AWARD FINALIST 2013: Contemporary
"The performance quality, with the composer and two of his longest-standing collaborators, is unimpeachable and Ondine's radiant sound completes a superb issue." (Gramophone)
"the music seems to combine Lindberg's newly acquired expressive generosity with the harmonic logic and lucidity that's always been characteristic of his work." (The Guardian)
