About

Self-taught as a composer, Kleven produced Lotusland, his first orchestral work, at the age of 23 and was praised as a master of orchestration.

Skogens søvn
incorporates certain avant-garde tendencies and shows Kleven starting on a path towards expressionism. The 1926 première of Symphonic Fantasy turned into the greatest musical scandal of the decade.

Finnish conductor Susanna Mälkki was director of the Stavanger Symphony Orchestra from 2002 to 2005.  She has conducted contemporary works, assisting Thomas Adès at the Almeida Theatre and also guest conducting with the Birmingham Contemporary Music Group.
