#2 from Akvarella, Op.5 (1912) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Phillip Sear plays a plaintive, folksong-like aquarelle by the Norwegian composer Alf Hurum (1882-1972) ------------------------------------------------------------------- The Norwegian pianist and artist Alf Hurum (1882-1972) was born in Christiania (Oslo) and studied in Berlin, Paris, and St. Petersburg. He wrote orchestral and other music in Norway in the 1910s and early 1920s, but then left the country in 1924, settling in Honolulu, Hawaii, where he founded and conducted the Honolulu Symphony Orchestra, and latterly gravitated towards painting. You can see an example of his painting style here: t.ly/dqpc . Hurum is considered an early Norwegian impressionist, but this piece looks back to Grieg and Gade.
