I'm in love with this concerto at the moment, and the fiddle concertos too. Really mesmerising stuff. I can't get into the piano concertos so far, but I'll keep listening.
Wow, I thought I knew a bit about Tveitt but I never know about this Harp concerto ! Intriguing, though not, IMO, on a par with the piano and hardangerfele concerti. The beginning is magical, and there is a lot of wonderfully evocative writing throughout, but the ruminative mood ultimately seems too persistent. I wish Tveitt had programmed a little more action. Still, great to hear, and sincere thanks for your great channel and wonderful uploads.

Wonderful!
Beautiful music that soothes my soul. Some passages made me think of Alan Hovhaness.
Composed in 1957.

It's shocking how often composers forget about basic necessities like contrasts, variety, and a strong ending.
what you are talking about is a special case only
