Rued Langgaard composed in a late Romantic style, emphatically dramatic and endowed with colossal mood swings. Unquestionably, he was influenced by Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss and, like Strauss, he was a master of orchestration. He was a prolific composer for the large orchestra, writing 16 symphonies as well as other orchestral works. –Wikipedia (read more)
A great complex of works. A huge cycle of symphonies. Some of these pieces are truly great, some exhibit pure genius, some are unlistenable, some are just plain banal. Yet somehow I feel that this man has to be accommodated into the Pantheon of Western composers. These CDs make a very brave attempt at beginning to secure this recognition. –www.musicweb-international.com (read more)
I'm lucky enough to have this collection, but for others who don't. Grab this while you can. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!! –oXbow (Avaxhome User)
