About
Roman’s ‘Drottningsholmsmusiken’ is a collection of 24 varied pieces, written for the wedding of Adolf-Fredrik, successor to the Swedish throne, and Princess Louisa Ulrika of Prussia. The celebrations lasted 4 days, so a suite lasting 50 minutes was probably barely enough – in fact, Roman composed 9 more pieces ‘in reserve’! Like the bride, the music is both lively and accomplished, and this spirited recording gives us a better chance to hear it, than many of the wedding guests would have had in 1744.
