LEIF SEGERSTAM (b. 1944)
Symphonies Nos. 81, 162 and 181
Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra (without conductor)
This new CD profiles acclaimed Finnish conductor Leif Segerstam as an equally inspired composer who has written nearly 250 symphonies to this date.
Featured are three one-movement symphonies that form a kind of “Bergen trilogy”: No. 81 “After Eighty…” (2002), No. 162 “Doubling the Number for Bergen…” (2006), and No. 181 “Names itself when played… = (raising the number with 100 for Bergen)” (2007).
Segerstam’s genius as a composer deploys itself through a unique notation technique: the score leaves a lot of freedom to the performers and yet requires no conductor for the orchestra. Hence, each performance turns into a unique listening experience.
These works are dedicated to and performed live on this disc by the reputed Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra.
