As eclectic another reviewer has described the works Salonen. From what point of view, I want to ask because times? From the German point of view anyway, is modernity, one follows the composer Boulez and Stockhausen, stuck in serialism and beyond eclectic anyway. Local compositions are mostly "bloodless" and do it often no longer have the premiere addition, let alone to be included (probably with exceptions, especially Rihm and now also Widmann). And from the standpoint of Seria lists is already Henze been eclectic. The Scandinavian modernism in my opinion is electrifying, if you like the name so. A culinary Klangfestmahl first degree. Which allows the legacy Sibelius's just more freedom, as the legacy of Schoenberg and Boulez ... And Salonen brings even here both on really fresh way. So clear recommendation, for "Modern-Muffels". (In addition, I can also recommend very works of Anders Hillborg)
