Many thanks to rbert12 for the two pieces by Knut Nystedt :)
I had not heard that Nystedt-the doyen of Norwegian composers-had actually died last December at the grand age of 99. Nystedt was a very interesting composer. I compiled a catalogue of his orchestral and choral music which is probably still to be found on this website. The choral music was probably slightly better known but-in common with most Norwegian composers-Nystedt's music remains mostly unknown outside Norway. It is lamentable and very very sad that the Norwegians have been so much more shy than say the Danes or Finns in making music by their native composers available on disc.
