The Blue Flower
The title BLAUE BLUME mirrors several aspects of the music on this CD.
In Robert Schumann’s ground-breaking Fantasy opus 17, a symphony for piano, the Blue Flower of Romanticism blossoms in all its individual, Schumannesque splendour. Frédéric Chopin’s piano poety is represented by his very first Mazurka (opus 6, no. 1) and his Ballade no. 3 (opus 47), also music related to this concept.
Torstein Aagaard-Nilsen’s piece BLUE TRACES originated during the composer’s “blue period.” This exciting contemporary work is inspired by the paintings of three contemporary artists, John Petter Havnerås, Elin Alver, and Thor Erdahl. All three works are reproduced in a richly coloured booklet, meditations on the colour blue.
Through all the notes
In earth’s many-coloured dream
There sounds one soft long-drawn note
For the one who listens in secret.
