August Enna (1859-1939) was a Danish composer whose music Carl Nielsen would have known, although he was never terribly successful, even in Denmark. Except for the light folk accents in the finale of the Violin Concerto in D major, the works here do not have strongly Scandinavian qualities; as with Nielsen, it is formal freedom over large dimensions that seems to interest Enna the most. The violin concerto is a remarkable work, with an operatic sequence of moods (Enna was best known as an opera composer influenced by Wagner); the outer movements are peppy and jocular, while the central movement, quoting the aria "Vesti la giubba" from the opera Pagliacci, is deeply expressive and even tragic. Any violinist could profitably add this to their repertory. The Symphony No. 2, to these ears, was rather low-key, lacking memorable tunes, but it had distinctive points in the orchestration. These were cleanly rendered by the Bogotá Philharmonic Orchestra under Joachim Gustafsson, apparently making its debut on recordings, although it plays at a very high level. This is certainly worth the time of those interested in Romantic orchestral music beyond the main lines of development.
