Felix Klieser loves challenges. For his latest album Northern Colours, the versatile horn player has dedicated himself to demanding works by Scandinavian composers such as Rolf Martinsson, Kurt Atterberg, Edvard Grieg, and Jean Sibelius. He is accompanied by the Deutsche Radio Philharmonie Saarbrücken, conducted by English conductor Jamie Phillips. The album Northern Colours will be released on April 25, 2025, by the Berlin Classics label.At the heart of this album is the work Soundscape – A Walk in Colours, Op. 118, by Rolf Martinsson (*1956). The Swedish composer has already written two concertos for brass instruments, including Concert Fantastique (2010) for clarinetist Martin Fröst. His encounter with Felix Klieser and a concert visit to the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg inspired Martinsson to compose a horn concerto for the exceptional horn player. “The encounter with Felix Klieser had a significant impact on me. In our conversation, I received not only ideas for the character and title of the work, but also for the musical ‘soundscapes’ I wanted to create,” says Rolf Martinsson. This led to the idea for the album as well as the central piece.
