Last night (2019-06-12) my latest oratorio, The Creation, was finally premiered and it was a joy to sit front row and hear the music fram start to finish for the first time. Though the music at times almost romantic and full of harmonic passages, the structure is not without difficulty for performers because of my fondness for time signature changes and non-traditional harmonic progressions. Regardless, the soloists and ensemble gave the piece a wonderful first performance. For anyone interested in hearing the music, Swedish Radio P2 recorded the concert for (Swedish national) radio broadcast 25th September and later also on www.sr.se for 30 days following the broadcast.
