This album presents the complete symphonies of Franz Berwald, performed by the Tapiola Sinfonietta under conductor Janne Nisonen. Although Berwald composed his four symphonies between 1842 and 1845, they were not fully recognized during his lifetime. The works reflect his innovative style, blending Romantic expressiveness with bold formal experimentation and orchestral color.
Symphony No. 1 in G minor, “Sérieuse,” is the most traditionally structured, while Symphony No. 2 in D major, “Capricieuse,” reveals Berwald’s playful side. Symphony No. 3 in C major, “Singulière,” stands out with its striking originality and structural freedom. The final Symphony No. 4 in E-flat major, “Naïve,” features vivid contrasts and lyricism.
This recording highlights Berwald’s distinct voice in Swedish Romanticism and the Tapiola Sinfonietta’s fresh and transparent interpretation brings new clarity to these underappreciated works.
