Torsten Mossberg - To Cecila: Swedish Love Songs

Sankta Cecilia has since the middle ages been regarded as the patron saint of music, and above all the church music. She is portrayed with musical instruments on a variety of paintings and the organ has been her special attribute. Cecilia's name day on November 22, has over the centuries been celebrated with music festivals and many composers have written pieces in her honor. For this CD in honor of the patron saint of music, I have chosen love songs mainly by Swedish composers.
