Larsson currently continues to number among the most popular composers of classical modernism in Sweden. Their popularity of course is explained in part by the fact that both continued to abide by the tradition of tonality without being epigonic reactionaries. Andrew Manze, to whom cpo owes a wonderfully inspired edition of the Brahms symphonies, is now presenting a new recording with Larsson's most important symphonic works as performed by his very own Helsingborg Orchestra.

"Music of substance and stature, eloquently played and beautifully recorded; a new and significant journey has just begun." Recording of the Month MusicWeb International, 25th June 2014

"The Helsingborg Symphony Orchestra plays well and the SACD sound is lush and inviting." (Four Stars AudAud.com)

Tracks:

Symphony No. 1 in D Major, Op. 2
The Winter's Tale, four vignettes
Lyric Fantasy, Op. 54
Musik for orkester (Music for Orchestra), Op. 40
