Description

[Machine Translation] Englund ( 1916-1999 ) was one of the major composers of Finland in the 20th century. He is known for the story of how he was able to come to the United States and study under Copland after Sibelius evaluated his own work and gave him a letter of recommendation. He was also an outstanding pianist, but gave up his career when he injured his finger during a battle against the Russians. Although there are not many piano pieces left, his works have an intense irony and humor in the style of Prokofiev, which gives them a different feel from his orchestral works. Recorded in 2017, performed by Laura Mikkola.

Note: This is an import edition (manufactured outside of Japan).

Description in Japanese

エングルンド: ピアノ作品全集 / ラウラ・ミッコラ

20世紀フィンランドにおける主要な作曲家の一人、エングルンド(1916-1999)。自作をシベリウスに評価してもらい推薦状を得たことで渡米し、コープランドに師事できたというエピソードで知られています。ピアニストとしても卓越した才能を持っていましたが、ロシアとの戦闘の際、指を怪我したことでキャリアを断念。残されたピアノ曲は決して多くありませんが、プロコフィエフ風の強烈な皮肉とユーモアを有した作品は、管弦楽作品とは違った風合いを持っています。ラウラ・ミッコラの演奏による2017年録音。
