Hilding Rosenberg (1892-1985) has been described as the first Swedish modernist composer. Influenced by Sibelius in his early years, he later absorbed the work of Stravinsky, Schoenberg, and Hindemith. His teachers included Hermann Scherchen and Wilhelm Stenhammar. Beginning to compose larger works around the age of 30, he wrote eight symphonies, a variety of music for string quartet, and a number of theatrical pieces including opera. Working with producer Per Lindberg in the 1920s, he was asked to compose incidental music to a play by Spanish author Jacinto Benaventes. The Marionettes successfully premiered in 1926. Rosenberg later used material from the work to fashion an opera. He also reconstructed it into a Dance Suite for the concert hall and this Overture in 1937. Instrumentation: 2.2.2.2: 2.2.0.0: Timp: Perc(3): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set). Reprint edition.
