BERGMAN OCH ENGLUND I ULEÅBORG: Chamber Music Concert III

In the late 1940s, Erik Bergman and Einar Englund wanted to be radical and challenge the traditions of Sibelius’ music and national romanticism. However, Sibelius only praised and encouraged them, and when listened to from today's perspective, their modernism sounds humane, gentle and inviting. Bergman and Englund seem to have many other things in common with Sibelius than just the fact that they all spoke Swedish as their mother tongue.

I slutet av 1940-talet ville Erik Bergman och Einar Englund vara radikala och utmana Sibelius och nationalromantiken. Sibelius berömde och uppmuntrade dem dock bara, och när man lyssnar på dem ur dagens perspektiv låter deras modernism human, mild och inbjudande. Bergman och Englund verkar ha många andra saker gemensamt med Sibelius än bara att de alla talade svenska som modersmål.
