In the masterly Symphony No.4  Eliasson creates an organic symphonic process, sometimes forceful and violent, at other times soft and billowing. The course of events really has the multiplicity of nature, on the same level as Sibelius. But despite the complexity of the music, the musical development is easy to follow as Eliasson masters an intelligible motif technique that is at the same time entirely his own and highly developed… Moreover, the instrumentation of the work is fantastic, so the orchestra under the experienced direction of Christoph Poppens will get to resound in full for the first time this evening.
