On this recording, Stefan Lindgren performs three Swedish piano compositions which, incomprehensively, have been silent for decades - three absolute treasures, testifying to the stature of Swedish piano music in the 19th century. None of them has been recorded previously, and a couple of them, probably, have not been performed in public for over a century. 

"Stefan Lindgren has already proven himself one of Sweden's foremost pianists in a previous recording of some classics of the piano repetoire. Another of his qualities - curiosity - is demonstrated in this, his second solo recording, in which he revives three practically unknown Swedish piano sonatas of supreme quality. It is surprising that we can afford to let masterpieces remain forgotten and unplayed for a hundred years, but that is what actually happened to these sonatas. The three composers are not exactly household names, but in these three pieces they have, presumably, given their very best.In this important piano recording, Stefan Lindgren plays with love and empathy."
