Buenos Aires - Paris - Chicago

Det Norske Kammerorkester; Brantelid, Andreas; Glorvigen, Per Arne

Contrasts, ruthlessness, charm and beauty. Legendary tango bandoneonist Per Arne Glorvigen is here with his debut album as a composer. He is an outstandingly virtuosic musician, well known for including his crazy humor in his artistic project. Cellist Andreas Brantelid is the ideal duo-partner on this album – both of them joined by the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra for a double concerto that takes you directly to Buenos Aires. For more than 25 years Per Arne Glorvigen has been among the most central banoneonists, with several releases and more than 100 concerts together with legendary Piazzolla interpreter Gideon Kremer. And tango is what Per Arne’s own work grows out of. With a contagious mix of humor and seriousness, Glorvigen takes hold of the listener immediately, radiating a primeval force both in person and through his music. Andreas Brantelid is among the most sought after Scandinavian cellists today. The Norwegian Chamber Orchestra sits well among the top chamber orchestras of the world, with a special knack in bringing forward Norwegian composers and soloists.
