About Tarp: Orchestral Works, Vol. 1
Not known to many today, Svend Erik Tarp (1908-1994) was one of the most prominent Danish composers of his time, boasting a large and versatile body of work which more or less has survived in obscurity. This series now sheds new light on a selection of Tarps orchestral works, opening chronologically with some suites, overtures, and two small concertos. These are early and charming works that show a development from the elegant and easily accessible towards a more clarified neoclassicist style, which later became one of Tarps hallmarks. This is the first of three albums in the set which will focus on Tarps orchestral music. The succeeding volumes will contain Tarps Symphonies 1-3 and his Piano Concerto. The series is chronologically built, illustrating Tarps development as a composer, starting with his elegant music, inspired by French impressionism. The two soloists on this release are both concertmasters of Aarhus Symphony Orchestra.
