Camerata Roman - Chamber Orchestra
(Known internationally as : Camerata Sweden)
Jan Stigmer - Violin
Marjolain Dispa - Viola

This is the second disc in the series in which Camerata Roman performs music from the countries bordering on the Baltic Sea. We begin in Estonia, with Rudolf Tobias and Eduard Tubin. Tubin later took up residence in Sweden, the country of origin of both Hilding Rosenberg and Kurt Atterberg. From there, it may seem a long leap to Poland, and the music of Krzysztof Penderecki, but in this particular piece he alludes to the neo.baroque style that also characterises the work of the Swedish composers. The neo-baroque style of Max Reger bears far more of the distinguishing marks of the romantic period, despite the fact that he is literally looking back at the greatest master of the Baroque, his countryman Johann Sebastian Bach.

Camerata Roman is part of the county music ensemble of Kalmar, Sweden. Since its establishment in the seventies, under the name Oskarshamns ensemble, it has developed into one of the leading string orchestras of Sweden. As "Camerata" in the name of the orchestra indicates, they often play "camerata" i.e. with no conductor. This places high demands on the musicians to be sensitive ensemble players. "Roman" is a reference to the "father of Swedish music", Johan Helmich Roman (1694-1758), who lived the last 13 years of his life on the Haraldsmåla estate north of Kalmar.
