TrondheimSolistene (The Trondheim Soloists) are regarded as one of the top chamber orchestras in the world. Their Divertimenti and their Folk Style were both nominated for a total of five Grammy Awards in categories “Best Small Ensemble”, “Best Engineered Album” and “Best Surround Sound Album”.
2L emphasizes surround sound with Pure Audio Blu-ray and HiRes file distribution, and have garnered no less than 12 American GRAMMY nominations over the past six years. The music captured by 2L features Norwegian composers and performers, and an international repertoire reflected in the Nordic atmosphere. The surround sound recordings of Lindberg Lyd not only transforms the entire listening experience, more radically, these innovative recordings overturn some very basic concepts regarding how music is played and even composed.
TrondheimSolistene and 2L allocated two weeks in 2011 to record this new album. Artistic director Øyvind Gimse and his associate Geir Inge Lotsberg initially chose two pieces that represent, in their estimation, “the most beautiful music ever composer for the string orchestra”: Tchaikovsky’s Souvenir de Florence and his Serenade for Strings. Aiming for a 90 minutes program left 30 more minutes to record. So the orchestra and 2L logged on to Facebook and asked the listeners worldwide what they’d like to hear. And the audience responded: Nielsen’s Suite Opus 1. A little gem that would exploit the Trondheim Soloists’ singular way with Nordic repertoire.
Inspired by Morten Lindberg’s extensive work with choral music, the Tchaikovsky’s SERENADE was recorded with the ensemble placed in mixed voices, meaning no one is sitting beside anyone playing the same part, creating a totally new soundscape to the music. Carl Nielsen’s SUITE opus 1 is recorded in a more “traditional” way in these sessions.
