Every Friday we choose a monitor from a Naxos Music Group album launched twenty years in the past to offer the accompaniment for 5 minutes of your downtime.
This week’s choose from the Ondine label (ODE1041-2) is a motion from Cantus articus by Finnish composer Einojuhani Rautavaara (1928–2016). It’s a extremely authentic orchestral work that comes with recorded birdsong from the Arctic Circle. We’ve chosen the second motion, Melancholy.
