Concerto

Nordgren's long and fruitful association with the Ostrobothnian Chamber Orchestra and its founder-conductor Juha Kangas has inspired several major works for strings and established him as the foremost Finnish exponent of the medium. The three movements of his Concerto for Strings have aphorismic titles: "Premonitions of bad days", "Dance away your worries!" and "A belated prayer for achieving fulfilment".
