The Swedish Radio Choir: Another Part of the Wood

Mors Saülis et Jonathæ is Marc-Antoine Charpentier’s oratorio based on the biblical battle between the Israelites and the Philistines, but it is also a story about fatherly love and death. Conductor Fredrik Malmberg leads the Swedish Radio Choir, members of the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, and P2’s Classical Artist of the Year baritone David Risberg in this Baroque masterpiece. Also featured is music by Britta Byström, Judith Bingham, Karin Rehnqvist, and Matthew Locke based on William Shakespeare’s most beloved plays and writings.
