This album is the world premiere recording of Niels Rønsholdt’s (b. 1978) cello concerto Country, written for cello and chamber orchestra. The concerto consists of 18 individual songs.
Niels Rønsholdt describes his approach as ‘method composing’ which involves referencing or paraphrasing e.g. mainstream music or historical music forms, in this case the country genre.
In the work, the country singer songwriter’s guitar is replaced with the cello, played alla chitarra, while singing ballad-like snippets. The music swings back and forth between pop and folk elements, the Romantic symphonic orchestral tradition and material which sounds closer to a film soundtrack.
Niels Rønsholdt recently received the Danish award Carl Prisen 2021 for Country. The work is written for cellist Jakob Kullberg, who is nominated for the Nordic Council Music Prize 2021.
