...Berg’s piece alluding to the mountains is from a score he created for a film with the same title.  He depicts mountain panoramas in his own way, and rather than the alpine peaks of some romantic composers, his are the rougher peaks of northern Norway.  The Flute Concerto returns to something of the quieter and more contemplative mood of the opening piece. An impression of calm pervades the music without the use of minimalism or other modern devices...audaud.com

Only the full symphony orchestra can impose the true emotional dynamics of the arctic nature. FLUTE MYSTERY is a collection of five orchestral works by Norwegian composer Fred Jonny Berg. In this distinctive and dynamic surround sound recording, the Philharmonia Orchestra with Emily & Catherine Beynon as soloists on flute & harp are conducted by the legendary Vladimir Ashkenazy.

Vladimir Ashkenazy: I am very fond of Scandinavian mentality, the way people express themselves and their spiritual world. It has always been a very special treat for me to conduct and play Scandinavian music and it is a particular pleasure to introduce to the world a very talented Norwegian composer Fred Jonny Berg whose music in its own way is a genuine reflection of his world.
Berg's music is often described as melodious, accessible and dramatic, yet with a highly original quality. Berg himself tries to explain: It is really as simple as it is complicated - I breathe in what life has to offer, and breathe out what I have to offer life. I have given up trying to grasp what actually happens in the process from impression to expression. In his music Fred Jonny Berg reveals himself as a person who has experienced that life consists of light and dark, but unlike the majority of us he approaches both with a similar undaunted decisiveness; it adds an extra quality to his music: the conviction of an eyewitness... 2l.no

...The titular 'Flute Mystery' (with Ashkenazy at the helm) is a kind of tone poem, mostly pellucid and tranquil but endowed with great lyrical warmth, although wistful and deeply introverted at times. It features a harp solo on more or less equal terms with the flute, cushioned by the strings who provide a slowly moving and rapturous harmonic tapestry like an elegant dance (which brought to my mind Debussy's 'Danses sacrée et profane'). Emily Beynon, first desk flautist of the Concertgebouw and Catherine Beynon, Principal Harpist of l'Orchestre Philharmonique du Luxembourg are the fluent and empathic soloists in this contemplative and peaceful 'Mystery'... sa-cd.net
