Per Nørgård - Recall (1968/1977)

for accordion and chamber orchestra
I. Cantico Antico II. Villanesca (4:45) III. Rondino (7:51)
Recall was composed as a tribute to my recollections of the vitality of Balkan folklore - as perceived by an urban Scandinavian. So the listener will listen in vain for any ‘authenticity' in the material. The slow introduction and the fast main movement unfold freely in their own way, which is never far from adopting sounds, melodies and rhythms that are far more ‘the sixties in Denmark' than ‘perceived folklore': it's an entertainment, based on childhood memories (‘recall') seen (heard) through a grown-up's eyes (ears) - PN 1990
Bjarke Mogensen, accordion
Danish National Chamber Orchestra, ensemble
