Description

Recording of Lars Gunnar Bodin's For Jon - Fragments of a time to come. The work is a dramatic cantata, with vocal sections for both chorus and soloists alternating with recitatives and instrumental interludes. It is based on a series of texts characterized by a kind of "surrealistic science fiction" testimony and reports about experience in other worlds, real or imaginary. The texts are never sung but are often melodically "coloured", "composed" with the aid of electronic means. The composition also includes a mixed chamber chorus of twelve singers and a soprano soloist.
