In Thoresen’s concerto entitled To the Brother Peoples the traditional instruments of Norway (Hardanger fiddle) and Sweden (nyckelharpa/keyed fiddle) meet up in a major piece for the first time. The work was commissioned for the centenary in 2005 of the dissolution of the union between the two countries.
The Sun of Justice is a musical reflection on the founder of the Bahá’i religion Bahá’u’lláh (1817-1892) and his prophecy that life on earth will become harder before the true sun of justice rises.
The orchestral piece Emergence is based on a traditional Sami chant and features two trombones which provide solo interpretation from behind the orchestra.
