Grieg, Sibelius, Sally Beamish and Nielsen

The Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, Janine Jansen and Martin Fröst perform the world premiere of Sally Beamish's double concerto Distans. Plus music by Grieg, Sibelius and Nielsen.

The Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra meet soloists Janine Jansen and Martin Fröst in a concert permeated by Nordic sounds. The world premiere of double concerto Distans by Sally Beamish, written for Jansen and Fröst, is interwoven with a string of works from Nordic musical history: Grieg’s Peer Gynt prelude, Sibelius’s symphonic poem The Bard, and Nielsen’s First Symphony in G minor.
