This highly praised recital album from Henning Kraggerud reflects the rich vein of Nordic writing for the violin that emerged between 1910 and 1930. Kraggerud, an exemplary stylist, explores this memorable repertoire ranging from Halvorsen to Stenhammar to the late romanticism of Sinding. Sibelius’s Six Humoresques remain a masterpiece of the genre, while the earlier works of Ole Bull illustrate the brilliance and panache of the “Nordic Paganini.”

“Recording of the Year … an imaginative selection that avoids the usual suspects, expertly played with just the right sense of playfulness and feeling … it will make you smile and in these troubled times, that is a pretty good outcome.” – MusicWeb International

“It is a pleasure to discover (these works) especially given the unaffected warmth of Henning Kraggerud’s playing, ably supported by the Swedish orchestra … Kraggerud is a major talent, with a rich, beautiful sound … he deserves to be more widely known. Any violin fancier should enjoy this very much.” – Fanfare
