TrondheimSolistene collaborates with 2L for a new album, following their award-winning Mozart violin concertos with Marianne Thorsen. DIVERTIMENTI features challenging string orchestra repertoire by Britten, Bacewicz, Bjørklund, and Bartók’s Divertimento. It’s the first music-only commercial recording on Blu-ray, marking a world premiere. The divertimento genre, originating in the 19th century, was meant for light, cheerful social occasions. Typically scored for small string ensembles, divertimenti were uncomplicated and elegant. Over time, the genre evolved, influencing virtuosic chamber music styles. Modern composers have refined the divertimento into a chamber-symphonic showpiece. The album showcases a diverse selection of technically demanding works. TrondheimSolistene highlights the genre’s historical and contemporary significance. DIVERTIMENTI blends tradition with innovation in a groundbreaking format.
