Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Hardanger Cocertos: A real Winner.
As a collector over fifty years, this is the first time I have come across these Hardanger Fiddle concertos. They are a real find. Characterful music of real imagination played with tremendous aplomb by Arve Moen Bergset, who is equally at home on both types of fiddle. The music, particularly in its quicker moments reminds one of Malcolm Arnold, a real sense of quirky fun complementing its rich melodic vein. The BIS recording seems exemplary in every way, allowing us to hear some wonderful playing from the percussion department of the Stavanger Symphony Orchestra under Ole Kristian Ruud. I commend this record to anyone with a sense of adventure; I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

A young woman (Josie Hunter) inherits an erotic wax museum in which the statues come to life and have sex with each other. Most wax museums are boring, but there is a new one in town. In this house of wax, when the heat turns up, the statues turn on. Instead of meltdown...they strip down. The most beautiful, most powerful people in history, immortalized in wax...are about to come back to life for an exotic extravaganza of ecstasy.

This is a compact survey of Hindemith in the process of becoming Hindemith. To those familiar with the mature, rather austere composer, the Straussian opulence of the 'Drei Gesänge' from 1917 will come as something of a shock. The massive orchestra surges behind a vocal line straight from the world of 'Elektra.' The trilogy of short operas he wrote 1919-21 is represented by dances from his erotic burlesque, 'Das Nusch-Nuschi,' and the shocking 'Sancta Susanna,' presented complete. This uncompromising, if tiny, opera offers a claustrophobic tale of erotic obsession in a nunnery with the music striving to outdo the already lurid libretto in shock value. The suite from 'Tuttifänchen,' written in 1922, brings the beginning of the mature Hindemith along with smatterings of the idiom made famous by Kurt Weill. The virtues of the orchestral playing will be well known to collectors of Tortelier's Hindemith series. The singing is all very good if perhaps without the last touch of opulence in the 'Drei Gesänge.' This excellent disc will provide considerable challenge and surprise to those only familiar with the mature Hindemith.
