Various - The Heritage Of Stenhammar

The great Swedish composer Wilhelm Stenhammar can be heard as an accompanist on recordings with John Forsell, and as a soloist on a few piano rolls, but never as a conductor. However, his successor, Tor Mann was recorded while rehearsing and performing the famous 2nd symphony, and the Serenade, works he himself experienced under the composer�s baton as an orchestral cellist. Sixten Eckerberg succeeded Tor Mann, and together with the Gothenburg Symphony and pianist Hans Leygraf, he made the world premiere gramophone records of Stenhammar�s important orchestral works.
