Recorder

 
 
The recorder is the most common member of the family of duct flutes. Already for many centuries, it has been surpassed by the flute in the conventional classical music orchestra. Recorder concertos have been rare since the baroque days, with Malcolm Arnold, Vagn Holmboe an Kalevi Aho probably the most famous names to have contributed to the repertoire.  I have selected the recorder concerto by contemporary Swedish composer Bjoern J:son Lindh, played by Dan Laurin with the Sundsvall Chamber Orchestra under Niklas Willen on BIS.
