EN AV ÅRETS SKIVOR 2010 ENLIGT LARS HEDBLAD PÅ SVENSKA DAGBLADETHÖGSTA BETYG I SVENSKA DAGBLADET4 AV 5 MÖJLIGA I BETYG I DAGENS NYHETER"Vinst är lycka! är en av de inskrifter från Pompeji som Magnus Lindberg tonsatt i Graffiti, hans första verk för kör och orkester. Utan berättartråd målas stadslivets existensiella och triviala sidor upp genom en rad klottercitat. Senromantiska, moderna och arkaiska drag i musiken uttrycker såväl antik intensitet och färgrikedom som latinets stringens. Drag av senromantisk tondikt har även det virtuosa orkesterverket Seht die Sonne, som bildar ett expansivt flöde med gestik av Gershwin och klanger av Sibelius. Förstklassiga framföranden.
(Svenska Dagbladet)
Lindberg's conviction, and technical resourcefulness, in creating this sound world can inspire rapturous enjoyment or alienated bafflement (...). The effect is always upbeat, exuberant and laid down with immense panache by the Finnish forces involved, in spectacularly vivid sound.
Arnold Whittall, Gramophone, March 2010
- Magnus Lindberg is one of today's most acclaimed living composers who currently serves as the New York Philharmonic's composer-in-residence.
- This new recording showcases his famed skills as an orchestral composer. Seht die Sonne ("Behold the Sun"; 2007) is an ideal example of his recent, more approachable style.
- GRAFFITI (2009) is Magnus Lindberg's first large-scale choral work with orchestra, which earned him the 2009 Finnish Composer Society's Award. The sung texts are a selection of 2000-year-old Latin graffiti inscriptions from the walls of excavated Pompeii houses. Their themes cover a range of aspects of domestic, political or civic life, including even some graphic language. International performances of this vital music (with hints of Stravinsky, Britten and Orff) have been received with great public and critical acclaim.
- Sakari Oramo and the Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra are experienced champions of their compatriot's music; their recording of Sculpture / Campana in aria / Concerto for orchestra was listed by the New York Times among a selection of the 22 most notable recordings of 2008. The Clarinet Concerto recording won best contemporary / première recording at both the Gramophone Awards and the BBC Music Magazine Awards in 2006.
