[…] court orchestra. In 1811 he travelled to Leipzig where he established a relationship with the music publisher Bureau de Musique, which became part of C. F. Peters in 1814. From 1818 to 1837 during the summers he conducted military bands in Linköping, providing them with arrangements of marches and overtures by Rossini, Spohr, and Weber and composing pieces for male choir. In 1822 he published three volumes of songs to texts by the Swedish poet Tegnér and others, and in 1826 another volume, Frithiofs saga, with ten songs to texts by Tegnér. An opera, Lilla slavinnan (The Little Slave Girl), was first performed in Stockholm in 1824 and was repeated 34 times in the following 14 years. 1 In 1780 Franz Joseph Haydn’s opera “La Fedelta premiata” premiered at Esterházy.

Swedish Xmas from Stone Records
Stone Record's Christmas discs are always a delight but this year's offering is unique. Deck the Halls, with Susanna Andersson and the Little Venice Ensemble.

Thus they bring to this "house party" a merry mix of spontaneity and professionalism. Kleiman not only plays (piano and violin) but is also the recording engineer and editor. The sound quality is so clear that you get […]

[…] process also lends itself to producing variations of well-known pieces or merging two or more existing compositions to produce offspring – musical sex, you might say.Using computers and algorithms – automated systems of rules – to make music has a long history. The Greek composer Iannis Xenakis did it in the 1960s, and in the following decade two Swedish researchers devised an algorithm for creating nursery-rhyme melodies in the style of the Swedish composer Alice Tegnér. In the 1980s, the computer scientist Kemal Ebcioglu created a program that harmonised chorales in the style of Bach.As artificial intelligence and machine learning became more sophisticated, so did the possibilities for machine music: now computers could infer rules and guidelines from real musical examples, rather than being fed them to begin with. The computer scientist John "Al" Biles devised an algorithm called GenJam that learns to improvise jazz. A trumpeter , Biles performs […]
