About

Between 1951 and his death in 1980, Allan Pettersson composed sixteen symphonies but only six other works.

The 4th Symphony is a single movement combining chorale-like passages with more modernist ones and is dedicated to the composer’s deeply religious mother. The 16th Symphony, occasionally jazz-scented, features a wild opening section memorably marked 'frenetico'.

BONUS DVD: 'Vem fan ar Allan Pettersson?' ('Who the hell is Allan Pettersson?'), a 52 minute interview made in 1974 for Sveriges Television. Subtitles in English.
