This successor to BIS’s disc of last December which included the Sixth Symphony contains another, the Seventh – the third and last of his wartime symphonies. The other two works are new to disc – the Bassoon Concerto of 1965 has in its elegiac slow movement music of some depth and poignancy. The Lucretia Suite was his first score for the theatre and though the second movement has quite a bit of Nielsen in it, it bears the composer’s personal stamp.'
