Hilding Rosenberg (1892 to 1985) - his oratorio Huvudskalleplats [Calvary], text Gullberg (1938):

    http://www.mediafire.com/?3w3h65qi1619c19

From a wireless broadcast of a public concert; duration thirty-four minutes.

According to Grove's Dictionary, Rosenberg "shared Schönberg's feeling for melody, and lyricism was an integral part of his art; the First String Quartet (1920), a work that has much in common with early Schönberg, is a good example."

Eleven more works of Rosenberg have already been posted in the former Downloads section at UC:

Symphony 1 (1917 according to Grove)
Suite from the opera "Journey to America" (1932)
Viola Concerto (1942)
Symphony 5 "Hortulanus" (Örtagårdsmästaren [The Keeper of the Garden]) (1944)
Concerto 1 for string orchestra (1946)
Cello Concerto 2 (1953)
Concerto 3 for orchestra "Louisville" (1954)
Symphony for wind and percussion (1966)
Symphony 7 (1968)
Symphony 8 "In Candidum" (original version, 1974)
Symphony 8 "Sinfonia Serena" (revised version, 1980)

Symphonies 1 and 3 by Maurice Karkoff




Symphony 1

Stockholm Philharmonic
Carl Garaguly, Conductor
Date Unknown

Symphony 3

Malmo Symphony Orchestra
Sergiu Comissiona, Conductor
Date Unknown

From the collection of Karl Miller

http://www.mediafire.com/?7b4ru8s0bdyt1x1




Text below from: http://www.gehrmans.se/en/composers/karkoff_maurice

Karkoff has given a voice to his impassioned, very engaged artist’s nature through an impressive array of works. His great capacity for form and constructions has also helped, rather than hindered, his natural sensitivity for the impulsive and spontaneously powerful.

Born in Stockholm on March 17, 1927. Studies in music theory for Karl-Birger Blomdahl from 1944-46. During this period (1945-46), he also studied piano at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm, followed by a degree in piano pedagogy in 1951. From 1948-53 he studied composition (Lars-Erik Larsson), counterpoint, and conducting. He complemented his studies in composition for Erland von Koch, Vagn Holmboe, André Jolivet, Wladimir Vogel, and Jörgen Jersild (instrumentation). He studied piano with Gottfrid Boon (1946-49) and Stina Sundell (1949-51). He was music critic at Stockholmstidningen from 1962-66. From 1965-96, he taught theory and composition at Stockholm’s Communal Music Institute. Karkoff has been awarded several prizes and awards: the Swedish Radio Orchestra Prize in 1962; the Christ Johnson Prize in 1964; the Stockholm City Prize of Honor in 1976; the Atterberg Prize in1983; Litt. et art. in 1993; the Alfvén Prize in 1999 and the Christ Johnson Grand Prize in 2006. He was a board member of the Royal Academy of Music in 1977.

Maurice Karkoff has himself often spoken of color and expressiveness as the strongest facets of his art, and these characteristics have had ample room to bloom in his many orchestral works and large vocal production. Among his chamber works are several string quartets and many pieces with both a lyrical character and great feel for musicianship.

Karkoff is one of the strongest and most versatile symphonic composers in Swedish music. The critic Carl-Gunnar Åhlén once wrote that his symphonies, taken together, form a canon in the genre that is comparable to that of Allan Pettersson. His symphonies vary in character from pointed to pregnant drama, a melodic language where the introverted goes hand in hand with a strong feeling for the lovely and beautiful; this is something that also characterizes the rest of his orchestral music, such as the works Sette pezzi and Vision. The symphonies often have an inner strength born of a feel for musicianship, such as in No. 11, Sinfonia della vita. They are sometimes imbued with great seriousness, such as Symfoniska Reflexioner (Symphonic Reflections), and the symphonies Nos. 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 9 (also called the Dolorous Symphony, composed for string orchestra). His musicality is complemented by his lyricism; he is a master of vocal writing, the tonal language of which sets up dialogues with poets such as Nelly Sachs, Paul Celan, Gunnar Ekelöf, and Tomas Tranströmer.

Sten Broman (1902-1983) -  Symfoni Nº 7 par nastro electronico ed orchestra  (1972)

The symphony has two parts: Combattimento and Contrappunto.

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?lcsuiku30r43m5m

I'm still not shure I should have posted this symphony. It is certainly not meant for most of us members here. It is written for a symphony orchestra and taped sounds. According to the composer, the sound are actually rearranged organ sounds. When you hear a lot of hiss (at approx 11'30") in the 1st part, this is no mis-recerding, but they are meant to sound that way.
I post this, for the reason that we all are more or less interested in the symphony. Broman started, as so many composers before him, later in life writing symphonies (Nº 1 in 1962, Nº 9 in 1977. The 7th is from 1972).

This a corrected re-upload from UC. In the original post was part 1 wrongly named as part of the Musica Malinconia
It was in fact the Canzona from Hedwall. The works are from Mike Herman's list.
